1 In a large heavy-based pan, place pumpkin, stock powder and boiling water. Cover and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until softened.

2 Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Sauté onion and garlic for 3–4 minutes, or until onion is softened. Add cumin and nutmeg and cook for 30 seconds. Add milk and season with cracked black pepper.

3 Remove pumpkin from heat. Pour milk mixture into pumpkin mixture. Using a stick blender, carefully blend until smooth. Return to stove and reheat, if needed.

4 Divide soup among four bowls. Swirl over sour cream and scatter with chopped nuts and seeds.
