Curried Butternut Squash And Sweet Potato Soup
🥕 Ingrédients
- Sweet potato: while regular potatoes are delicious in soup, the sweet potato compliments the flavour of the squash perfectly for this recipe.
- Onion: any medium-sized cooking onion will do. (Yellow, white or red.)
- Garlic: make sure to use fresh garlic cloves in this recipe.
- Ginger: make sure to also use fresh ginger in this recipe. Ground ginger won’t taste the same.
- Spices: this soup uses a combination of curry powder, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper.
- Vegetable broth: any kind you love.
👨🍳 Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a bakingpanwith parchment paper.
- Peel the butternut squash and cut into cubes, removing the seeds. Peel the sweet potato and cut it into cubes. (I use a vegetable peeler to peel both.)
- Toss the butternut squash and sweet potato with 1 tbsp of avocado oil and spread onto the baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden brown.
- Heat the remaining 1 tbsp of avocado oil in a large pot on medium-high heat and add the onion, garlic and ginger, sauteeing for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the butternut squash, sweet potato, vegetable broth and spices and bring to a light boil.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. (You can alternatively transfer the soup to a regularblenderand blend.)
- Serve as is or top with some yogurt and pumpkin seeds.
