Ingredients:
1 butternut squash
1 leek, sliced
1 rasher streaky bacon, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
1 litre reduced salt bouillon (veggie stock)
Dried herbs (rosemary or thyme)
2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp chilli powder (optional)
Black pepper
Cut the squash into large chunks (no need to peel) and place in a deep casserole dish. Add the bacon pieces, leeks and herbs and drizzle with the oil. Add a splash of boiling water and roast in the oven at 180C for around 30 minutes. After 30 minutes remove from oven and place on the hob. Add the stock, chilli powder and black pepper and cook over a medium heat for about 15 minutes, until squash is squishy!
Blend until smooth and serve with a poached egg, or a dollop of creme fraiche. Yum.
