Preparation
Step 1
Roast squash, red bell peppers, tomato, onion and garlic in oven for about 20-30 minutes.
In a large thick bottomed pot or dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the squash, roasted red peppers, carrots, onion, garlic, coriander and red chili flakes. Cook on medium heat, without browning, for about 5 minutes, or until soft.
Pour just enough stock to cover the vegetables. Add the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Remove the bay leaf and transfer all to a blender. Puree until smooth, return to the pot. Add more stock or water to attain the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
To serve, garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and fresh chopped parsley.
