Pumpkin, Macadamia and Coriander Soup
It was a miserable day here with squally showers and blustery winds a blow. Indeed it was a perfect day for soup. I purchased a bag of macadamia nuts from a guy at the farmers markets on the weekend for $3.00 and whilst many were consumed during the nut cracking process yesterday we did have enough left over for soup. Perfect for such a dreary day.
Pumpkin, Macadamia and Coriander Soup
Serves 4 - 6
1 tblspn ghee
1 medium onion
1 clove of garlic, crushed
½ - 1 tblspn red curry paste (depending on your like for spice)

1 organic vegetable stock cube
1 – 1 ½ cups water (approx)
¼ tspn ground black pepper
¼ cup coconut cream
1 cup macadamia nuts roughly chopped plus extra for garnish

Welcome
Hey There, I’m Sherilyn the creator of Wholepromise. This is where I venture outside of being a mum, wife and Fertility Nurse Specialist. I live on the Sunshine Coast in Qld, Australia and am spoilt by year round access to Farmers Markets offering a plethora of local, seasonal and organic produce. In all Wholepromise is my style of food, it’s the food I want my boys to appreciate and it’s the food that makes me happy. Styling and photographing it is just another bonus.
