Ingredients
1 medium butternut squash (about 2 lbs), halved and seeded
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 cups vegetable stock

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Brush the butternut squash halves with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them cut-side down on the baking sheet. Roast for 45 minutes, or until tender.
3. In a large pot, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. Stir in the garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, and cinnamon, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
5. Scoop the roasted squash flesh into the pot, discarding the skin. Add the vegetable stock and bring to a simmer.
