The Story Behind the Dish
Pumpkin — kaddu or petha — is a much-loved vegetable in India, cooked as a sweet-and-sour sabzi in Punjab, in coconut curries in the south and in festive dishes in Bengal.
Blending it into a spiced soup with coconut milk is a modern take that keeps those familiar flavours.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Naturally sweet and creamy without any dairy, it's a cosy vegan soup.
💡 Fun Fact
In India, pumpkin is also used to make 'petha', a famous translucent candy from the city of Agra.
