Serves 4
Ingredients:
For soup:
1 butternut squash (small - medium size)
2 teaspoons of vegetable stock - I like Marigold
1 chopped shallot or small onion
1 pint of water
Ground black pepper
Method:
Chop the top & bottom off the butternut squash & peel it using
potato peeler. Scoop the seeds out from the bell shaped bit then
chop it up into chunks.
Throw all the ingredients into a pan together and bring to the boil
then simmer for 20-30 mins until tender then blend until smooth. The
amount of water you need depends on the size of the squash. YOu
might need a bit more if it's a bit bigger.

Yes we love butternut squash soup we often add a couple of star anise whilst cooking (needs to be removed before processing) and a clove of garlic roughly sliced, makes a nice change occasionaly
