What's better than a quick, simple and seasonal soup? That's exactly what we've got for you here - a creamy soup from patty pan squash. It's great on a cooler summer day or in autumn, because it warms you up and fills you up. You can top it with homemade croutons or crackers for a nice crunch, or serve it with a piece of bread.

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the squash. Finely chop the onion and slice the garlic.

  2. Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add the onion and garlic and saute until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add the diced squash and mix. Pour in the stock, add salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg.

  4. Bring it to a boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 20‑25 minutes, until the squash is tender.

  5. Once soft, use a stick blender and mix it until smooth. If you don't have a stick blender, you can use a kitchen blender and work in batches if needed.

  6. Add the double cream and mix some more. If it's too thick, you can add more stock or water. Cook it for a couple more minutes.

  7. Pour it into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs.
