Prep time: 15 mins

Cooking time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • 1kg fresh butternut squashes

  • 3 celery sticks, sliced

  • 2 medium onions, chopped

  • 1 garlic clove, crushed

  • 2 tsps fresh lemon thyme, chopped

  • 1 litre vegetable stock

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 2 tbsps low-fat plain yoghurt

  • salt and black pepper, freshly ground

Method

  • Cut the squash in half lengthways, using a large chopping knife. Remove the seeds and peel away the thick skin, using a small knife.

  • Chop the flesh into small pieces. Place in a large saucepan with the celery, onions and garlic and dry-fry over a low heat for 2-3minutes.

  • Add the thyme, stock and bay leaves and simmer gently until the vegetables are soft.

  • Remove the bay leaves. Place the soup in a liquidiser or blender and liquidise until smooth. Return the soup to the pan, adjust the consistency with a little extra stock if required and season with salt and pepper.

  • Just before serving, remove from the heat and stir in the yoghurt, reserving a little for the garnish. Pour into individual serving bowls.
