A Butternut Squash Soup Sensation

I also made a butternut squash soup with a kick.

Pretty simple.

1 M Butternut Squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
1 M onion ( or cut a large one in half) Diced
2 Tblsp Extra V O.O ( i just filled the Top of the oil 3 1/2 x)
1 in. of fresh ginger, minced
1 clove of garlic
1/2 tsp (dash) of Cayenne Pepper
1/2 tsp (dash) of Coriander
1/2 tsp of (dash) salt
Fresh water

First Chop the Butternut squash in 4 and add to boiling water for about 20mins or until you can poke smoothly through the Squash. In the meantime chop up ingredients. After the Butternut has cooked through then peel, seeded, and cube. In a Medium Saucepan, add olive oil and onion, for about a 1min 30 secs or until soft. Add Ginger and Garlic in the mix. then add a dash of Cayenne and Coriander to the saucepan, stir in. Add the Butternut to the mix and add just enough water ( depends whether you want it thick or soupy) Cover pot and bring to a boil. Then bring heat to a simmer for about 30 mins. Add mixture to a blender until smooth. Garnish with some Vegan Cream and parsley on top. or just eat it. fantastic either way.

I enjoyed eating it soo much and im not a soup person. My mother did too.
