Steps:
- 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.
Tips:
- Choose the right squash. Look for a small to medium-sized buttercup squash that is firm and free of blemishes.
- Roast the squash before cooking. This will help to caramelize the natural sugars in the squash and give it a slightly smoky flavor.
- Use a variety of apples. Different varieties of apples will give your dish different flavors and textures. For example, Granny Smith apples are tart and crisp, while Honeycrisp apples are sweet and juicy.
- Add spices and herbs to taste. Common spices and herbs that pair well with buttercup squash and apples include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, thyme, and rosemary.
- Serve warm or cold. Buttercup squash with apples can be served warm as a side dish or main course, or cold as a salad.
Conclusion:
Buttercup squash with apples is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. With its sweet and savory flavor, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
