Ingredients
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/2 ounce butter
- 1 1/4 pounds butternut squash, peeled and diced

- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- lemon juice, to taste
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 recipe Red Pepper Coulis
Note: Maggie and I oven roast the squash before preparing the soup. We like the flavor added and it ensures the squash is fully cooked.
Directions
- In a pot, cook the onions, carrots, and squash in butter. Do not brown the vegetables.
- Add vegetable stock, cook 'til vegetables are soft.
- Add the curry powder, and cream. Bring the soup back to a simmer.
- With a hand blender, puree until smooth.
- Strain through a fine mesh strainer.
- Season and adjust flavor with lemon and brown sugar.
Plating
Warm bowls in a 200 F oven or under running hot water from the tap. If using water, dry thoroughly.
Ladle 1 cup of soup into each bowl then drizzle coulis on top of the soup in your favorite design.
Serve while still hot.
