started up the cookin again. Its about time!

Hi folks, I have been pretty busy lately traveling and then home again, just getting in the groove of routine living, as much as I can pull that together!  Anyway, this is a great recipe that I really like and am making now, so just thought I 'd share..


Butternut Squash Soup
2 small or one large butternut squash 
1 onion
2 tbsp butter
1 tsp salt or 1 tbsp chicken boullion
cayenne pepper
2 tbsp garam masal or mild curry power
6 c H2O
sour cream
Cut squash into 2 inch pieces  removing the strings  and the seeds.
Boil til soft. Drain ,then when cooled off, start peeling off the rind. In the meantime Saute onion in butter til transparent in a 3 quart heavy bottomed  pot.  Add spices and ½ the water.   Then add salt and squash.  Simmer for ½ hour til  flavors have blended.  Scoop out the squash and onions and puree in a blender til very smooth.  Return squash mixture back to  pot.  Add more water if you like to the consistency you desire.  Whisk in any  sour cream  for a creamier soup.  Serves 4-6 . Garnish with cilantro

Serve with Warm spinach salad and some fresh homemade bread and butter. Use the recipes I already have posted if you like for Salads and bread.
