Ginger Squash Bisque Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Squash

   Peel and cube the butternut squash into small pieces.

2. 2

   Sauté Aromatics

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

3. 3

   Cook the Squash

   Add the cubed butternut squash to the pot and stir well. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. 4

   Add Broth

   Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender.

5. 5

   Blend the Bisque

   Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Alternatively, transfer in batches to a countertop blender and blend until creamy.

6. 6

   Add Coconut Milk and Season

   Return the bisque to low heat, stir in the coconut milk, and season with salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and chili flakes. Stir well and heat through for about 5 minutes.

7. 7

   Serve

   Ladle the bisque into bowls, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot.
