Pumpkin Harvest
I love this time of year, when hard work and horticultural perseverance is rewarded with so much orange and green. Thankfully, my obsession with Rachel Allen's crab and coconut soup has moved with me into autumnal mode, and I make it with diced pumpkin, rather than crab and prawns. I've also learned to up the chili factor but tone down the ginger. It's just such a happy-looking soup, with shards of red chili, strips of orange pumpkin flesh and the tiny scallion slivers floating on the surface. Thanks to Nigel Slater's winter recipe for giving me the notion.

How delicious your soup looks! I love soup, but somehow it doesn't seem appropriate when it's still 90 degrees F. outside. And I was even thinking of making a pot today. . .
Thank you Jan, it really is a totally delishy soup, and so lovely and colourful, and I've only just realised that the link to the previous post about Rachel Allen is misspelt - it should read CRAP and coconut soup, not crap and coconut soup...
OFGS!
CRAB and coconut soup
