2 tablespoons usli ghee or butter
2 medium onions, peeled and finely sliced
1 teaspoon Madras curry powder
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ginger
2 pounds butternut squash, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
4 cups chicken stock or water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the Garnish
¼ heavy cream
Ground Cinnamon
Paratha bread for accompaniment
1 In a large saucepan, heat the ghee over low heat and stir in the onions, curry, cinnamon and ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions begin to brown, about 8 minutes.
2 Add the squash, stock, and enough salt and pepper to taste. Bring the liquid to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer 25 minutes, uncovered, or until the squash is soft. Set aside to cool slightly before pureeing.
3 Work in small batches, puree the soup in a food processor until smooth. Return the soup to the pan and reheat. Taste for seasoning. (Cher’s note: You can also use an immersion blender to puree or opt to use a potato masher for a rustic chunkier soup)
4 To serve, divide the soup among four serving bowls and drizzle a little cream on top of each serving and sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon.
