Curry Butternut Squash

"Souper" easy! This can be served hot or cold.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 4 cups butternut squashed- peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 small apple (any variety) cored and chopped
  • 1 quart chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 tsp. curry powder (or to taste - I use more)
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper (you can use white pepper if you have it on hand)
  • 1/2 cup half and half
  • sour cream to drizzle, optional

Directions

Heat butter in large pot. Add onion,cook until soft (about 3 minutes). Stir in squash and apple. Add broth, curry powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 25 minutes or until squash is soft and tender. Stir occasionally.

Cool for about 5 minutes. Then begin to puree in blender (in batches). (Remember not to fill blender to top, as the heat will cause the lid to blow off the blender!)

Return to pot, add cream and heat through. You can also drizzle with a dab of sour cream if wanted.
