Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion (chopped)
  • 2 stalks celery (chopped)
  • 2.5 pounds winter squash (peeled, deseeded and cut into chunks)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 5 cups chicken stock
  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)
  • Parsley (Fresh) ( chopped to serve (optional))

Instruction

  • Melt the butter and oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions and celery, and gently cook until really soft – about 15 mins. 
  • Add the squash and cook, stirring for 5 mins. 
  • Add the honey and chicken stock, bring to a simmer and cook until the squash is tender. 
  • Remove from heat and using a hand blender, blitz until smooth (adding a bit more stock or water if the soup is too thick). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Reheat before serving, sprinkle with chopped parsley.
