Ingredients
Instructions
-
Sauté the Vegetables
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté chopped onion and minced garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
Tip: Stir frequently to avoid burning the garlic.
-
Cook the Squash
Add the peeled and cubed butternut squash and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the squash is tender, about 20 minutes.
Tip: Use chicken broth for a richer flavor or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version.
-
Puree the Soup
Use an immersion blender or regular blender to puree the soup until smooth. Stir in ground nutmeg, heavy cream, salt and pepper.
Tip: If using a regular blender, puree the soup in batches to avoid overflow.
-
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Tip: Swirl in a little extra cream for a visually appealing finish.
