Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 3 onions , chopped
- 2 tbsp chopped sage
- 1.4kg peeled, deseeded butternut squash - buy whole squash and prepare, or buy bags of ready-prepared
- 1 tbsp clear honey
- 1½l vegetable stock
- bunch chives , snipped, and cracked black pepper, to serve
Instructions
- Melt the oil and butter in a large saucepan or flameproof casserole. Add the onions and sage, and gently cook until really soft – about 15 mins. Tip in the squash and cook for 5 mins, stirring. Add the honey and stock, bring to a simmer and cook until the squash is tender.
- Let the soup cool a bit so you don’t burn yourself, then whizz until really smooth with a hand blender, or in batches in a blender. Season to taste, adding a drop more stock or water if the soup is too thick. Reheat before serving, sprinkled with chives and cracked black pepper.
