Preparation

Step 1

Finely chop the onions and garlic and sweat in olive oil for two to three minutes.

Step 2

Remove the stems of the coriander, reserving the leaves. Tie the stems together and add them to the pot.

Step 3

Add the diced butternut squash to the pot and fry for a few moments in oil with the onions, (this will make your soup shiny).

Step 4

Moisten with water or if you have a good chicken stock it's even better, and cook until the pumpkin pieces are soft all the way through (check with the tip of a knife).

Step 5

Do not overcook as the soup will be tastier. When it is cooked, remove the coriander stems and mix everything with a blender. Add the coriander leaves and blend again.
