This easy butternut squash soup recipe is flavoured with red pepper and ginger and then blended until silky smooth. Roasting the squash, rather than boiling it in a pan, really brings out the flavour in the vegetables to make a rich-tasting soup without any added dairy.
For this recipe you will need a 3.5–4 litre/6–7 pint deep-sided saucepan and a blender.
