Ingredients
- 3 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium red onion (or yellow onion) roughly chopped
- 1 butternut squash, about 1kg peeled and deseeded
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 800 ml vegetable stock
- sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add in onions, butternut squash and garlic, and cook, stirring often for 3 minutes (add 1 tablespoon of water if necessary).
- Add in ginger and thyme leaves and continue to sautee all the ingredients for a further 1 minute. Season with sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper to taste.
- Pour the vegetable stock into the pot, bring the soup to a boil, then cover with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the butternut squash is just about soft and tender.
- Remove one cup of vegetable broth from the pot, and set aside. Transfer the ingredients into a blender (you might have to do it in batches), and blend until smooth, adding the reserved stock until reaching the desired creamy consistency. Season with sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper to taste.
- Divide the butternut squash soup into bowls, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil if you like and serve with crunchy toasted bread.
Notes
- Does butternut squash soup freeze well? Yes, absolutely! For quick lunch or dinner meal, freeze the soup into individual portions and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- How long will the butternut squash soup keep in the fridge? It should keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days, make sure you transfer it into an airtight container.
