Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons ginger root, minced
3 lbs butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into chunks
2 apples, cored and cut into chunks
1 carrot, thinly sliced
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
dash of nutmeg
1/2 cup cream
Instructions
1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
2. Stir in the garlic, onion, and ginger root. Cook for 10 minutes, until soft.
3. Add the broth, squash, apples, and carrot.
4. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, until the squash, apples, and carrot are very tender.
