Pumpkin soup

 I noted this recipe while I was watching a cookery show in some channel and the recipe belongs to Chef Kunal from My yellow table. I have prepared this soup countless times and is a favourite at home. Pumpkin is best consumed in the form of soup as it not liked in other forms at home. This recipe is a keeper.
