Vegetable soup

This soup tastes wonderful, especially on a winter day so make double, eat some today and freeze the rest for a quick winter lunch.

Serves 6

2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 each of carrots, kumara and potatoes, washed and chopped
3 stalks celery, including leaves, chopped
1-2 cups peeled and chopped pumpkin
6 cups vegetable stock
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Heat oil in a heavy-based saucepan and stir fry onion and carrot for 3-4 minutes.
Add remaining vegetables and stir fry for 4-5 minutes.
Add stock and simmer gently for 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Add pepper and serve.

Tip: Slice vegetables into bite-sized pieces.

Variation: Purée for a smooth soup.
