Pressure cooker pumpkin, lentil and carrot soup

Pumpkin soup is a delicious orangey treat and even better when topped with micro greens for a punch of flavour. You don’t have to make it in a pressure cooker as it’s only slightly slower in a large saucepan on the hob. Y’Bon sourdough toast is the only other thing needed.
