1 pumpkin peeled, deseeded, and chopped (you may use pureed pumpkin if so add at stage 3)
2 cloves garlic sliced
2 red chilies deseeded and sliced (or a few shakes of hot sauce)
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1/8 cup cream (optional)

Recipe Note
This soup can be made in the oven/stovetop if you do not have an Instant pot. Simply roast your pumpkin in the oven with a little oil until soft (approx 40 mins)
Transfer to a dutch oven and add the onion, carrot, garlic, and chili, and saute for 5 mins.
Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce heat and then simmer for around 15 mins.
