Method
0 of 6 done- Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Carefully peel and cube the butternut squash into roughly 2.5cm pieces.
- In a bowl, toss the squash cubes with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking tray and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until soft and slightly caramelised on the edges.
- Meanwhile, drain and rinse the butter beans. Once the squash is roasted, transfer both the squash and butter beans to a medium-sized saucepan over low heat.
- Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Allow it to cook for 5-7 minutes, and season with more salt and pepper to taste if necessary.
- Remove from heat and use a hand blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the single cream, and blend again briefly until incorporated.
- Serve hot with a drizzle of extra cream or olive oil if desired, garnishing with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added colour and flavour.
