Butternut squash has a lovely buttery, sweet flavour and is a perfect base ingredient for a filling soup. Aside from being surprisingly difficult to chop up, these vegetables are healthy and delicious, making for another great vegetarian soup dish. This recipe has a more exotic flavour than some of our others, incorporating coconut milk, nutmeg, and cinnamon. If you’re cooking to impress, perhaps this option is best.
