Pumpkin soup with saffron and an Indian twist. With a hint of orange, garam marsala and turmeric. Tasty until the last spoon.
As you may know I love Indian food. And I'm fond of pumpkin soup. One of the tastiest soups and I regularly eat them.
So this month when I was assigned the blog of Safrana Agana at the food blogswap and encountered a delicious pumpkin soup, the choice was soon made and because we gave it our own twist it seemed a good idea to have one Indicate Indian twist.
And although I finally opted for this delicious soup, the Fatima blog showed a variety of delicious dishes. With a Moroccan - Amazigh background, there are also many delicious Eastern dishes on it, which I definitely want to make and try again in the future. I have therefore saved the link to Fatima's blog and that is definitely recommended.
It's a good taste!
