Ingredients
Martha Stewart Recipe!1 tablespoon unsalted butter - used olive oil1 medium onion, diced1 butternut squash (about 2 pounds), peeled, seeded, and chopped4 red or golden apples, peeled, cored, and chopped, plus 1 apple, finely diced and tossed in lemon juice, for garnish (optional)2 teaspoons coarse salt - I used one tsp1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin1/2 teaspoon ground coriander - didn't have it, left it out1/2 teaspoon ground ginger - used 1/4 tsp1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper - used 1/8 tsp, still turned out spicy but not too much so 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper2 cups homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken or vegetable stock2 1/2 cups water, plus more if needed1 jalapeno chile, thinly sliced, for garnish (optional)Sour cream, for garnish (optional)- I added 3 garlic cloves!
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to soften, about 4 minutes. Add squash, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes.
Add apples, salt, cumin, coriander, ginger, cayenne, black pepper, stock, and the water (just enough to cover). Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until vegetables are very soft, about 30 minutes.
Puree in batches in a food processor or blender until smooth, and return to saucepan. Heat over low, thinning with more water if necessary. To serve, ladle into shallow bowls; garnish with diced apples, jalapeno slices, and sour cream if desired.
