Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 small Onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 1 pound butternut squash peeled and diced
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 Yukon gold or russet potato, peeled
  • 6 cups water chicken stock, or vegetable stock
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk

Instruction

  • 1. Heat the oil in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and stir together until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the squash, sweet potatoes, regular potato, and water or stock, and bring to a simmer. Add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes, or until all of the ingredients are thoroughly tender. Add coconut milk. 2. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup (or you can put it through the fine blade of a food mill or use a regular blender, working in batches and placing a kitchen towel over the top to avoid splashing). Return to the pot and stir with a whisk to even out the texture. Heat through, adjust salt and add pepper to taste. Yield: Serves 6 Advance preparation: You can make this a day ahead and refrigerate. Reheat gently. The soup freezes well. Once thawed, whisk well to smooth out the texture, and reheat.
