Ingredients

  • 1 Butternut squash, about 2 pounds
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped garlic
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced carrot
  • 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced jalapeno pepper
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

Cut the squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Peel the squash and cut into 1 inch pieces. In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the carrot, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, and then add squash, jalapeno pepper, and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15- 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Remove from the heat and puree the soup using an immersion blender, or transfer to a blender or food processor. Puree until smooth. Return to the heat, add the cream and adjust the seasonings. Serve with the shrimp salsa.

    Delicious, tasted just as good as it did at the resturant, except I didn't top it with chives! Didn't have heavy cream so used half and half.
