Halve pumpkin, remove seeds, then cut into wedges. Trim away peel, cut ¾ of the flesh into chunks, dice the rest. Peel and dice 2 onions and the garlic clove. Peel the carrots, wash and chop into pieces.

Roast pumpkin seeds in an ungreased pan, stirring regularly, for 2–3 minutes, then remove from pan. Heat oil in a frying pan, add diced pumpkin and onion rings and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3–4 minutes until golden brown. Cut Waldviertler sheep’s milk farmhouse cheese into cubes. 


Wash marjoram, pat dry and strip leaves off the stems. Purée soup with a blender. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle in bowls, scatter with pumpkin cubes and seeds and drizzle with pumpkin seed oil.
