Instructions

1 Prepare your vegetables: peel away the skins and chop pumpkin, sweet potato,
potato, carrot and onion into large chunks of similar size. Place them all into
a large pot, along with garlic cloves.
2 Cover vegetables with stock and place on the stove over high heat. Bring soup to
a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cook for one hour, or until all vegetables a

3 Blitz your soup using a stick blender or high powered blender (you may need to
do this in batches). Add cream, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
4 Meanwhile, if using, dice your bacon and pan fry until crispy. Stir this through
your soup.
5 Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkling of diced chives.
