Preparation

Step 1
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and sauté onions for 3 to 4 minutes, under they start to soften. Add squash, celery, garlic, potato, and pepper.
Step 2
Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, until the squash and potato are tender enough to be pricked with a fork.
Step 3
In a blender, puree mixture into a smooth soup.
Step 4
Return soup to the saucepan and add cream. Reheat over low heat before serving.

Variation

After puréeing the soup, stir in 1 tbsp (15 mL) finely grated ginger and 1 tsp (5 mL) hot pepper flakes for a warm, spicy kick.
