Time 2h20m

Yield Serves 6 to 8; Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium butternut squash (3 pounds)
3 tablespoons safflower or other neutral-flavored oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup thinly sliced shallots (3 medium)
3 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
2 tablespoons minced ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1/2 cup coconut milk, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from 1/2 lime)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds; reserve, if desired (see Cook's Note). Drizzle cut side of squash with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Place, cut-side down, on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until squash is very tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes.
  • In a 6-quart pot or Dutch oven, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook until shallots are soft and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add ginger and coriander; cook until very fragrant, 2 minutes. Stir in broth, 1 cup water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Scoop flesh from cooled squash into pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring a few times, 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
  • Working in batches, puree soup in a blender until smooth. Return to pot; heat over medium. Whisk in coconut milk. Cook until warmed through, 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve, drizzled with more coconut milk and sprinkled with toasted squash seeds, if desired. Soup can be stored in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is heavy for its size and has a deep orange color. Avoid squash that has blemishes or soft spots.
  • Roast the butternut squash before using it in the soup: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the squash whole or in cubes.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use store-bought broth or make your own.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered until the vegetables are tender, but not mushy. Overcooked soup will lose its flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt to brighten the flavors.

Conclusion:

Butternut squash and ginger soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a cold winter's day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture and flavorful combination of butternut squash and ginger, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
