Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons good olive oil
  • 4 cups chopped yellow onions (3 large)
  • 2 tablespoons mild curry powder
  • 5 pounds butternut squash (2 large)
  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet apples, such as McIntosh (4 apples)
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups good apple cider or juice

Directions

1

Warm the butter, olive oil, onions, and

2

curry powder in a large stockpot uncovered over low heat for 15 to 20

3

minutes, until the onions are tender. Stir occasionally, scraping the bottom

4

of the pot.

5

Peel the squash, cut in half, and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into

6

chunks. Peel, quarter, and core the apples. Cut into chunks.

7

Add the squash, apples, salt, pepper, and 2 cups of water to the pot. Bring

8

to a boil, cover, and cook over low heat for 30 to 40 minutes, until the

9

squash and apples are very soft. Process the soup through a food mill fitted

10

with a large blade, or puree it coarsely in the bowl of a food processor

11

fitted with a steel blade.

12

Pour the soup back into the pot. Add the apple cider or juice and enough

13

water to make the soup the consistency you like; it should be slightly sweet

14

and quite thick. Check the salt and pepper and serve hot.
