Butternut squash soup

I love homemade soup. This is so easy to prepare and has a lovely sweet taste and creamy texture. 

600g butternut squash
1 onion
20g butter
1/2 tsp chilli salt
Salt and pepper to taste
1 veg stock cube

1. Peel and chop butternut squash into small cubes, removing the seeds
2. Finely chop the onion
3. Heat butter in large pan, add onion and cook until it starts to soften
4. Add butternut squash and chilli salt, stir and fry for 5 mins
5. Cover the squash with boiling water, add stock cube and bring to the boil
6. Cover with a lid, turn down to low simmer and cook for 20-30 mins until squash is softened
7. Blend with a hand blender or in the food processor, add extra boiled water if too thick and salt and pepper to taste
8. Return to pan to warm through then serve

Fabulous!
