Ingredients

  • 2 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed

  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped

  • 1 tart apple (such as Granny Smith or Jonagold), peeled and chopped

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1-inch fresh ginger, peeled and grated

  • 1/2 tsp ground turmeric

  • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/8 tsp cardamom

  • Dash of ground cloves

  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

  • Coarse salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Toss the butternut squash, carrots, and apple with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, until tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, sautéing until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, and a dash of ground cloves, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  • Add the roasted vegetables to the pot, and pour in enough water or vegetable broth to cover the ingredients by about an inch. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy, or transfer the soup in batches to a blender.
  • Adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil or a sprinkle of additional spices.
