Ingredients

  1. 1medium sized butternut squash, peeled de-seeded and chopped
  2. 1/2white onion chopped
  3. 4small carrots peeled and diced
  4. 200 mlfull fat coconut milk
  5. To tasteSalt and black pepper powder
  6. As neededOlive oil
  7. 1 tsp chilli flakes to garnish
  8. as neededpumpkin seeds for garnishing

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Gently cook the onions in a splash of olive oil in a large saucepan, for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the carrots and squash and cook over a medium heat for a good 15 minutes. For this soup I purposely allowed some of the squash to start to caramelise (but not burn) as it adds more flavour to the end soup.

  3. 3

    Add 500 ml of veg or chicken stock and simmer until the veg is tender.

  4. 4

    Allow to cool slightly then blend until smooth. Then stir in the coconut milk. Now taste the soup and add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with seeds and chilli flakes to garnish before serving.

This was delicious and helped me use up half a squash that was starting to look a little unloved! “Best soup I’ve ever had” according to my wife!
