Time 3h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
olive oil
2 sweet onions (such as Vidalia®), diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 quarts vegetable stock
1 (8.4 ounce) package medium-hot curry sauce (such as S&B® Golden Curry)
2 Granny Smith apples, cored and diced
2 (14 ounce) cans unsweetened coconut cream
¼ cup toasted pine nuts, or to taste
16 fresh cilantro leaves, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place squash onto a baking sheet cut-side down.

Provided by carrie sheridan

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
2 shallots, finely chopped
2 granny smith apples
1 butternut squash (about 2 lbs)
6 cups chicken stock or 6 cups prepared broth
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup half-and-half
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Peel and seed the butternut squash and cut into 2-inch chunks.
  • Peel and core the apples and cut into 2-inch chunks.
  • In a soup pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
  • Saute the onion and shallots until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the apples and squash and cook until nicely coated, about 3 minutes longer.
  • Add the stock and rosemary and bring to a simmer. Add the thyme.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are very tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat. Using a hand-held or standing blender, puree the soup until smooth.
  • Stir in the half-and-half and season with salt and pepper.
  • Reheat gently over medium-low heat.
  • Ladle the soup into warmed bowls and garnish with the sour cream, using a fork to swirl a zig-zagged pattern.
  • [you can garnish with leaves of rosemary and thyme].

Tips:

  • Choose the ripest butternut squash: Look for squash with deep orange flesh and a firm, heavy feel. Avoid squash with soft spots or blemishes.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is a key flavor component in this soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with real vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When you're cooking the vegetables, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make the soup watery.
  • Simmer the soup until the vegetables are tender: The soup should simmer for at least 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Puree the soup until smooth: Use an immersion blender or a regular blender to puree the soup until it is smooth. If you're using a regular blender, be sure to work in batches.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the soup.

Conclusion:

This apple and butternut squash bisque is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. The combination of sweet apples and savory butternut squash is a classic flavor pairing that is sure to please everyone at your table. This soup is also a great way to use up leftover apples and squash. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a salad for a complete meal.
