Peel and chop the red pumpkin into small pieces.

Remove the seeds from the pumpkin and cut it into desired sizes.

Chop a carrot and add it to a bowl with the chopped pumpkin.

Use a grill pan to sauté the garlic, onion, pumpkin, and carrot slowly to prevent burning, adding oil if necessary.

In a separate pot, heat water and add a pinch of salt to blanch the pumpkin and carrot mixture.

Add chopped lemongrass to enhance the flavor.

Include basil leaves and cilantro for additional taste, then boil the mixture.

Once boiled, remove the lemongrass and blend the mixture into a paste using a mixer jar.

In a pan, add the blended paste along with salt, crushed black pepper, and oregano, and cook well.

Add cream and optionally butter to the soup for richness.

Serve the soup in a bowl, garnished with olive oil and cucumber seeds.
