2 vege stock cubes

METHOD:
- Fry onion and garlic in olive oil in a large pot.
- Take skin off pumpkin and chop into smallish pieces, add to onion and garlic and lightly fry to bring out the flavour.
- Grate some of the rind off the orange into the onion mixture.
- Peel tumeric and grate into the onion and pumpkin ( Be careful as fresh tumeric will stain everything yellow)

- Cut orange in half and juice it, add orange juice to taste with a little salt and pepper
- Serve and enjoy (I added a little tofu sour cream to mine on service....was delicious!!!)
