Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family, and is closely related to cauliflower. Its cultivation originated in Italy. Broccolo, its Italian name, means “cabbage sprout.” Because of its different components, broccoli provides a range of tastes and textures, from soft and flowery (the floret) to fibrous and crunchy (the stem and stalk). Broccoli contains glucosinolates, phytochemicals which break down to compounds called indoles and isothiocyanates (such as sulphoraphane). Broccoli also contains the carotenoid, lutein. Broccoli is an excellent source of the vitamins K, C, and A, as well as folate and fiber. Broccoli is a very good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the vitamins B6 and E.

INGREDIENTS:
1 Tbsp clarified butter, also known as ghee (or regular butter) (For vegan recipe use earth balance butter alternative)
1 small onion, chopped
2 tsp minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp curry powder or paprika
2 tsp cumin
2 Tbsp fresh, finely chopped ginger
2 cans (30 oz.) pumpkin puree or fresh pumpkin
1 quart vegetable stock
1 can coconut cream

GARNISH OPTIONS:
lime
chopped parsley
pumpkin seeds
avocado
sour cream or creme fresh
cooked bacon bits

DIRECTIONS:
On medium heat, sweat out the onion and garlic in the clarified butter, about 2-3 minutes. Then add in all of your seasoning and mix together, coating the onions in the seasoning. Next add in the ginger and pumpkin puree (or fresh chopped pumpkin), and cook for another minute.
NOTE: If you use fresh pumpkin, you’re going to need to sauté the pumpkin longer, until it’s soft enough to poke it with a fork.
Then add in the vegetable stock and coconut cream, and bring it up to a simmer. Let it cook for about ten more minutes, to infuse all of the flavors and it’s ready to serve. Garnish with desired toppings
