Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups butternut squash peeled, seeded and 1" cubed (1 small squash)
  • 2 medium-large carrots, peeled and cut 1/2" slices
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 3 cups vegetable broth or water/chicken
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream or half and half cream
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp Himalayan salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • celery leaves, chopped and scallions sliced for garnishing

Equipment

  • medium sauce pot or dutch oven
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400° Place squash, carrots and garlic on a baking pan and drizzle with olive oil and maple syrups, then season with salt and pepper. Then toss until the vegetables are coated. Stir halfway through and continue to roast until soft and tender, about 40 min.
  2. The last 5-10 minutes for the vegetables to roast, start sautéing the onions. Using a medium-large sauce pot or dutch oven, over medium heat, melt butter and add onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes then add garlic and sauté for another minute.
  3. Add the vegetable or chicken stock, roasted squash, carrots and garlic. Then stir in the cream and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the soup to a low boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes.
  4. Puree soup using a hand emulsifier or blender until the soup in smooth. If you are using a blender, wait until the soup is slightly cooled pour in batches at a time to blend. Test if seasoning needs adjusting.
  5. Garnish with cream and parsley or scallions. Enjoy!
