Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add onion and garlic and saute until onions are soft ( about 5 minutes). Add salt, red pepper, curry powder, coriander and stir for about a minute until you can smell the spices.

Add pumpkin, corn, and broth. Bring to a boil and them simmer 15 minutes.

Optional: Transfer soup to blender of food processor and blend until smooth. It is a lot of soup. I have to do it in batches. Return blended mixture to pot.
