Roasted Pumpkin and Sweet Potato Soup

It was really long since I tried any new recipe. and also long time since I added a post on my blog.
Since the time I have joined back to work, I am back to my hectic routine with no much time to dedicate for cooking or blogging!!!
This weekend I decided that I am going to come over it and try a new simple recipe.
And that's how this recipe was born...soup...the simplest thing ever - to prepare as well as gobble

To give a delicious taste, I seasoned the pumpkin and sweet potato with olive oil , salt and pepper and roasted it in the oven before blending it to prepare the soup.

Ingredients:
Pumpkin - 500 gms
Sweet Potato - 1 big
Onion - 1 - chopped
Olive Oil - 2 tbsp
Garlic- 5-6 big petals - chopped
Salt
Ground Pepper

Procedure:
1. Chop the pumpkin and sweet potato into big cubes (along with their skin)
2. Take a mixing bowl, add in the chopped pumpkin and sweet potato. Add Olive oil, salt and freshly ground pepper and mix well.
3. Take a baking tray and spread a baking paper. Arrange the pumpkin and sweet potato pieces on the baking tray.
4. Pre heat the oven at 200 degrees for 10 mins
5. Place the baking tray on the top section of the oven and bake till the pumpkin and sweet potato is soft and cooked. It should take around 15-20 mins depending o the oven. Once they are done, out them back in the mixing bowl and discard the skin of the sweet potato and pumpkin
6. Take a wok and add 1 tbsp olive oil, add the chopped onion and garlic and fry it till the onion is light brown in color and keep it aside.
7. When everything cools down, blend the baked pumpkin and sweet potato together with the fried onion and garlic in a blender.
8. After blending, pour it back in the vok and heat it up. Adjust the salt and pepper as needed.
