This New Zealand recipe came from my sister Tracey, it sounded at first like too much work with two pots but when I tried it out it was so yummy that it was well worth it and it's become a family favourite for whenever pumpkins are cheap enough to indulge in here in The Netherlands since pumpkin isn't really such a "regular" veggie here. If we travel and I find pumpkin, this is the recipe I indulge in !
Cook pumpkin and onion in 60 grams (2oz) butter for 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add water and cook gently until pumpkin is very tender.
Push through a sieve or pureé in blender with a little of the milk.
Melt remaining butter in clean pan and stir in flour, then pumpkin pureé and remaining milk stirring until well blended.
Season with salt, pepper& nutmeg.
Simmer 20 minutes.
If desired take out a little soup, blend with egg yolk and stir back into big soup mixture just before serving.
