Ingredients

2 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
3 medium carrots, diced
1 large onion, chopped
1 tbsp grated ginger
750 ml vegetable broth
1 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 large focaccia bread
2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme

Method

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C/392°F.
2
Place the cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Toss to coat and roast in the oven for 40 minutes or until tender.
3
While the squash is roasting, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced carrots and chopped onion, sautéing for about 10 minutes until softened.
4
Stir in the grated ginger and minced garlic, and cook for another 2 minutes.
5
Add the roasted butternut squash to the pot with the sautéed vegetables. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 15 minutes.
6
While the soup simmers, prepare the herb focaccia. Cut the focaccia bread into large squares and place on a baking sheet.
7
In a small bowl, mix together 1 tbsp olive oil with the chopped basil. Brush this mixture over the focaccia squares.
8
Place the focaccia in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the edges are crispy and golden.
9
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
10
Serve the hot soup with a drizzle of olive oil and the crispy herb focaccia on the side.
