Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut peeled pumpkin pieces, potato and carrot into bite-sized chunks. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim green beans and cut into thirds. Finely chop onion and garlic. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion and chicken until cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic, tomato paste, chermoula spice blend and green beans and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Add the water, coconut milk, vegetable stock powder and the brown sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, 3-5 minutes.
• When the roasted veggies are done, add them to the soup along with baby spinach leaves. Gently stir until combined.
• Divide coconut and chermoula veggie soup between bowls. Sprinkle with roasted cashews and chilli flakes (if using) to serve. Enjoy!
Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The chermoula spice blend gives this soup a rich, aromatic depth that reviewers loved; several described it as more of a curry than a soup, which was a pleasant surprise.
- Ease of prep: Roasting the vegetables first adds a step but is well worth it, and using an air fryer instead of the oven is a time-saving option some reviewers found worked well.
- Suggestions: Serve with bread, roti, or rice to make the meal more filling; some reviewers also added chickpeas for extra protein, which complemented the dish well.
- Next-day meals: Leftovers reheat beautifully, and one reviewer even added fried fish to the leftover soup for a satisfying second meal.
- Portions: A few reviewers felt the soup was a little light on protein and suggested adding extra chicken or legumes to bulk it up for heartier appetites.
