    Directions

    01

    Warm oil in large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

    02

    Stir in diced apple and ginger and cook 1 minute longer. Add butternut squash, broth, curry paste, dulse flakes, goji berries, turmeric and lime juice and mix well. Over high heat, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, or until squash is very soft.

    03

    Working in batches, transfer soup to blender. Puree until very smooth, and then pour into large bowl. Repeat with remaining soup mixture and return batches to soup pot.

    04

    Stir in coconut milk and gently warm over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if desired. To serve, ladle into bowls, drizzle with additional coconut milk and garnish with a few apple shavings.
