1 pumpkin of your choice (we either use hokaido or butternut)
500g of ground meat (either beef or beef and pork combined)
3–6 carrots
3–4 potatoes
1–2 tsp of fresh minced ginger
1,5 liters of broth (either vegetable or chicken)
Salt & Pepper to taste
1–2 tsp of chilli flakes
3 bayleaves
1 tbsp meat seasoning of your choice.
Instructions
- peel all the veggies and cut them into generous chunks.

- add the broth, and season with salt and pepper.
- in your slow cooker/crockpot cook the soup on high for 4 hours.
- once the soup has cooled fish out the bayleaves and blend the soup until smooth. It it is too thick you can either add some more water or broth.
- finish seasoning with salt, pepper and chilli.
- cook your groud meat in a medium size pan until cooked through and season with salt, pepper, and the meat seasoning.

These types of soup are great to prepare in bigger batches and to freeze for days when you don’t have time or energy to cook.
