It’s simple to make, hearty, and ridiculously inexpensive.

20 g butter 1 onion (sliced)2 cloves crushed garlic 1/2 butternut pumpkin(peeled, seeds removed. Cut into rough 5cm chunks.)1 peeled potato cut in half 750 ml water½ tsp ground chipotle chilisea salt & cracked pepper
THE DETAILS...
1. Preheat oven to 140°c.2. In a cast iron casserole on a low heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced onions and gently stir. Cook them until soft and translucent 3. Add the garlic. Stir in, and cook for 30 seconds Add the pumpkin, potato and water. Increase the heat to medium and bring to a simmer.
4. Once simmering, remove the soup from the stovetop and pop into the oven for 90 minutes.5. After 90 minutes the pumpkin and onions should be nice and caramelized, and the liquid partly reduced.
