Simple Curried Squash Soup

By / Photography By | November 08, 2018

Ingredients

SERVINGS: 4 Serving(s)
  • 1 butternut neck or two cups of roasted squash
  • 1 roasted pepper
  • 1 roasted onion
  • 3–5 roasted garlic (squeezed out of skin)
  • 3 cups mushroom stock
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • Optional garnishes: sriracha, yogurt and/or chives

Preparation

1. Simmer for 20 minutes then puree with an immersion blender.

For more heat add a roasted jalapeno (not on shopping list) or pinches of cayenne pepper to the pot.

This soup can be saved in the refrigerator for a meal tomorrow, frozen for up to three months or served right away with a drizzle of sriracha and/or a garnish of freshly chopped chives and a dollop of yogurt.

This recipe is fairly forgiving—you can make it with slightly more or less squash. If you have a little squash left over, add it to the mix for the soup. If a lot of squash is left over, freeze it for later use later in more soup or pancakes.
