Variations on soup: Lemon grass added to stock while heating.

PUMPKIN PUREE:
Remove skin from pumpkin and chop the meat into small pieces. Heat butter in a saute pan and add the pumpkin. Add the water and simmer covered for about 20 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender. Remove the pumpkin meat and mash it by hand or in a food processor.
