Curried Butternut Squash Soup with Kale
"This soup is one of my all-time favorites. It's simple, beautiful and full of flavor. It also happens to be vegan. The optional fonio crisps add a lovely texture."

cup peeled and diced butternut squash
Directions
-
01Make an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and cold water. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the diced butternut squash for about 3 minutes, until just soft but still mostly firm. Using a perforated spoon or sieve, remove the squash from the water and plunge into the ice bath to quickly stop the cooking. When it’s cool, drain the squash and set aside.
