1 | Butternut squash | |
2 | Onions | |
2 | Chili peppers | |
1 tbsp | Butter | |
4 tbsp | Creme fraiche | |
1 cloves | Garlic | |
2 tbsp | Olive oil | |
850 ml | Vegetable stock |
- Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Peel and deseed the butternut squash, dice the onions and chilies, and thinly slice the garlic.
- Cut the squash into large cubes, about 4cm across, then toss in a large roasting tin with half of the olive oil. Roast for 30 mins, turning once during cooking, until golden and soft.
- While the butternut squash cooks, melt the butter with the remaining olive oil in a large saucepan, then add the onions, garlic, and three-quarters of the chillies. Cover and cook on a very low heat for 15-20 mins until the onions are completely soft.
- Tip the butternut squash into the pan, add the stock and crème fraîche, then whizz with a stick blender until smooth. For a really silky soup, put the soup into a liquidiser and blitz it in batches. Return to the pan, gently reheat, then season to taste. Serve the soup in bowls with swirls of crème fraîche and a scattering of the remaining chopped chilli.
