Best Easy Roasted Butternut Squash Soup With Ginger Coconut Milk Recipes

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH CREAM SOUP WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Brush cut side of butternut squash with olive oil and place on a baking sheet, cut-side down.
• Bake in the preheated oven until peel is crinkly and butternut squash is soft, about 40 minutes. Scrape flesh into a bowl with a spoon and set aside.
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat and cook onions until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add squash flesh, 2 cups hot broth, and ginger. Season with ginger, curry, cumin, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until flavors are well combined, about 15 minutes.
• Puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Add more hot broth for a thinner soup. Stir in cream and season to taste with sugar, apple cider vinegar, cayenne pepper, and salt.

EASY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH GINGER & COCONUT MILK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Using a sharp, sturdy knife, carefully cut off the stem of the butternut squash, then cut the squash in half vertically. Scoop out the seeds and either discard or save for roasting. Brush the inside of each half with the 2 teaspoons olive oil and place cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until a fork easily pierces the flesh, about 45 minutes. Remove squash halves from oven and set aside to cool a bit.
• Set a medium pot over low heat. When hot, add the olive oil and then the onion. Sweat the onion, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent but not golden, about 8 minutes. (To sweat onion, make sure your heat is low and you can barely hear a sizzle). Add 1 1/2 cups of the broth, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.
• Peel the skins off of the cooked butternut squash and add cooked flesh to the pot. Using an immersion blender or working with a countertop blender in batches, puree the entire mixture.
• Return the puree to the pan (if you are using a countertop blender; if you used an immersion blender, you're already there!) Stir in the coconut milk. Bring back to a simmer. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. If you prefer your soup to be thinner, add the remaining broth.
• Remove from heat, ladle into bowls, and add garnishes if desired. Serve.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keeps for about 3 days.

COCONUT BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

Steps:

• To bake the squash, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut in half and place halves, cut side up, in a foil-lined, shallow baking dish and cover tightly with more foil. Bake for 30 to 50 minutes, until you can easily pierce the flesh with a knife. Scoop out and set aside.
• Heat about half the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until golden, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the apple, squash, broth and spices. Bring to a steady simmer, then cover and simmer gently until the apples are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the solids to a food processor with a slotted spoon, in batches if need be, and process until smoothly pureed, then transfer back to the soup pot. Or better yet, simply insert an immersion blender into the pot and process until smoothly pureed.
• Stir in the coconut milk and return the soup to a gentle simmer. Cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until well heated through. Season with salt and pepper. If time allows, let the soup stand off the heat for an hour or two, then heat through as needed before serving.
• Just before serving, heat the remaining oil in a large skillet. Add the red onions and sauté over low heat until golden and soft.
• Meanwhile, strip the kale leaves off the stems and cut into thin shreds. Stir together with the onions in the skillet, adding just enough water to moisten the surface. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the kale is bright green and just tender, about 5 minutes.
• To serve, ladle soup into each bowl, then place a small mound of kale and onion mixture in the center.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH COCONUT MILK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Wrap each garlic half in foil and place on the prepared baking sheet. Add squash, cut-sides down. Add onion, leek, and ginger.
• Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are golden and squash skin is easily pierced with a fork, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Squeeze out roasted garlic cloves and scoop out squash flesh into a food processor or blender with onion, leek, and ginger. Add 2 cups broth and puree (in batches if necessary) until smooth. Transfer to a soup pot.
• Place the pot over medium heat and add remaining broth. Whisk in coconut milk, curry powder, and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and black pepper, and cook until heated through, about 15 minutes.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

Steps:

• To make roasted winter squash: Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat butter over medium-high heat in an ovenproof saute pan; add diced squash, salt and pepper. When squash begins to brown, place pan in oven. Roast for 15 minutes or until medium-brown on all sides. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Puree in food processor, or mash with potato masher or ricer. Measure 1 1/2 cups squash; reserve.
• To make soup: Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add the onion, celery, carrot and cinnamon stick; saute until soft but not brown, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the broth and the coriander; bring to a boil. Simmer for several minutes. Stir in reserved squash until smooth; simmer gently to let the flavors meld, about 10 minutes. Discard the cinnamon stick.
• Puree the soup using an immersion blender or in a blender until smooth. (The soup can be made ahead to this point, cooled, covered, and refrigerated for several days or frozen for about 1 month. It will thicken as it cools and may need thinning with broth or water when reheating.)
• Return the soup to the pan and reheat gently. Add the half-and-half. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Top each serving with pumpkin seeds and toasted bread crumbs.
