Instructions to make Simple Butternut Squash Soup:

1. This is the size butternut squash I used. It was 500 g (450 g after peeled and seeds removed).
2. Peel butternut squash and remove seeds. Chop into bite-sized cubes. Cut onion into thin slices.
3. Melt butter in a medium pot and sauté sliced onions in low heat until starting to turn slightly brown (about 7-10 minutes).
4. Add the butternut squash to the pot and stir around to coat with the butter and onions.
5. Pour in enough broth to cover everything (about 450-500 ml). If using unsalted broth, add 1/2 tsp salt too.
6. Bring to a boil then turn to low heat. Cover with lid and simmer for about 15 minutes until squash is soft.
7. Turn off heat and purée the soup with a mixer. If you don't have a mixer of some sort, try mashing it up as much as possible with a fork (it will be a chunky soup this way). Taste and adjust seasoning.
8. Dish out into bowls and garnish with some chopped parsley and or toasted cumin! (To toast cumin, simply heat about 1/2 tsp in a dry frying pan for a few minutes until it smells good. Be careful not to burn).

It's still everything you expect a squash soup to be: silky, slightly sweet, and full of flavor. In a large pot add the butternut squash, celery, onion, carrots, apple, and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add in thyme, cinnamon, and salt and pepper and using an immersion blender (or blender) blend until smooth and creamy.
