Ingredients
  

1 medium butternut squash (about 2 pounds), peeled, deseeded, and cubed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

1 carrot, diced

1 potato (Yukon Gold or Russet), peeled and diced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup coconut milk (full fat for creaminess)

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh cilantro or parsley, for garnish

Optional: Red pepper flakes for a bit of heat

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened and translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Add Vegetables: Add the cubed butternut squash, carrot, and potato to the pot. Mix well with the sautéed onions. Season with cumin, coriander, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the spices to toast slightly.

      Pour Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring the vegetables are fully submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.

        Blend Soup: Once the vegetables are cooked, remove the pot from heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until creamy.

          Add Creaminess: Return the blended soup to the pot (if using a blender) and stir in the coconut milk. Heat over low heat for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley. For an extra kick, sprinkle with red pepper flakes.

              Enjoy your cozy bowl of Silky Butternut Bliss Soup!
