This is such a simple recipe and one that every soup maker should have in their repertoire. I added a little zing to mine to enhance the flavour and it worked better than I could have ever imagined!
I have also discovered a new food toy... the Thermos food and drinks flask. I now get to have a hot lunch at work everyday and this is the perfect way to warm up on a cold day.
Ingredients:
1 x large onion
1- 2 tsp powdered ginger
Sprinkle of chili flakes
800g approx of carrots
1 x large - x large butternut squash
1.5 litre chicken stock
To Make:
Roughly slice the onions, appearance doesn't matter as you are going to blitz it at the end and fry over until translucent.
Add a the ginger and chili flakes and continue to cook on for a minute or so.
Add in the diced carrots and squash. Stir into onions until glossy and softened slightly.
Pour over stock and continue to cook until the veg is soft.
Get the jdguger (officially the hand processor!) and blend until smooth.
You can add croutons or toasted pine nuts for decoration and another layer of taste when serving.
Eat and enjoy.
You can also use sweet potato instead of butternut squash, what ever you can get your hands on, it will still be delicious.
