Ingredients:
4 cups squash or pumpkin cooked and mashed
2 cups vegetable stock
3/4 cup orange juice
1 tbsp grated orange rind
2 tbs butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
8 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp salt
few dashes of cayenne
1/2 cup light cream

Garnish:
Yogurt and chopped scallions or chives

Instructions:
In a large sauce pan, combine squash with orange juice, orange rind and stock. Heat butter in a skillet and add onion, garlic, salt and spices. Saute until the onion is very soft. Add a little water if it sticks. Add mushrooms, cover and cook for 10 minutes. Add the saute to the squash. Heat gently and allow the flavors to blend for 15 to 30 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste. Shortly before serving, add 1/2 cup light cream. Simmer until hot.
Serve topped with chopped scallions or yogurt or both.
