Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1-pound butternut squash, peeled, halved lengthwise
7 1/2 cups (or more) water
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped onion
2 cups frozen corn kernels
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 large potato, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Using spoon, scrape out seeds from squash; reserve squash seeds. Combine 1 1/2 cups water, squash seeds and 1 tablespoon salt in small saucepan. Bring to boil. Strain seeds; rinse under cold water to remove any squash pieces from seeds. Pat seeds dry with paper towel. Toss seeds with 1/2 teaspoon oil in small bowl. Sprinkle with salt. Transfer to baking sheet. Place squash on baking sheet. Brush with 1 tablespoon oil. Roast seeds until toasted, about 6 minutes. Roast squash until tender and lightly browned, turning once, about 45 minutes. Cut squash into 3/4-inch pieces.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, 1 1/3 cups corn, garlic, coriander, cardamom, cumin, cayenne and cloves; sauté until onions are tender, about 8 minutes. Add squash and 6 cups water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer 30 minutes.
  • Working in batches, puree chowder in processor until smooth. Return chowder to same pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat. Add potato and remaining 2/3 cup corn kernels; simmer until potato is cooked through, thinning chowder with more water if necessary, about 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon chowder into bowls. Garnish with toasted squash seeds and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Look for butternut squash that is firm and has a deep orange color. Avoid squash that is soft or has blemishes.
  • Roast the squash before using it in the soup: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the squash, preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place the squash halves cut-side up on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this soup, but you can also use frozen or canned corn. If using frozen corn, thaw it before using. If using canned corn, drain and rinse it before using.
  • Add some heat: If you like your soup spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a chopped jalapeño pepper. You can also add some chopped fresh cilantro or parsley for a fresh flavor.
  • Serve with a side of bread or salad: This soup is delicious served with a side of crusty bread or a fresh salad.

Conclusion:

Butternut squash and corn soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a comforting and delicious soup, give this butternut squash and corn soup a try.
