Instructions
- Saute the sliced onion and crushed garlic in a little olive oil.
- Add the pumpkin or butternut squash and peeled potatoes to the pot and immediately add enough water to cover everything.
- Add the oregano and cover the pot with a lid that allows steam to escape.
- Boil until the pumpkin/butternut squash and potatoes are soft.
- Either mash the vegetables for a chunky soup or blend for a smooth soup.
- At this point, the soup can be refrigerated for a few days or frozen for a few months or served immediately.
- When ready to serve, warm up the soup and mix in the cream saving a little to swirl on each plate. The cream is a delicious extra, but for a lighter, healthier soup I leave out the cream.
