Directions: |
Directions:1. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
2. Add the onion, celery and carrots along with a good pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to
soften.
3. Add the potatoes, squash, apples, ginger, garlic and chili and cook, stirring occasionally, for five minutes more.
4. Add the stock or water along with a few good grinds of black pepper.
5. Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover and reduce the heat to maintain a simmer.
6. Cook, stirring occasionally, until all the vegetables are very tender, 20 minutes or more depending on the size of your
dice.
7. Remove from the heat and carefully purée with an immersion blender, or in batches in a regular blender, until very
smooth. If you want a completely smooth soup, pass it through a fine-mesh strainer.
8. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges. |
