Ingredients

  • 500 grams Kabocha squash
  • 1/2 large Onion
  • 400 ml Water
  • 15 grams Butter
  • 3 tsp Soup stock cube
  • 1 dash Salt and pepper
  • 400 ml Milk
  • 100 ml Heavy cream
  • 1 to garnish Parsley
  • 1 Black pepper
  • 1 Croutons

Method

  • Wash the kabocha with the skin still on and remove the seeds.
  • Dice it into 2 cm pieces, and separate from the skin.
  • Slice the pieces in half to make them even smaller.
  • (See Step 6)
  • Slice the onion.
  • Put the ingredients marked , the onion and kabocha in a rice cooker, and cook as normal.
  • When it's finished, blend in a mixer while still warm.
  • Transfer to a container, add milk and heavy cream, and mix.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and leave in the fridge until well-chilled or serve warm.
  • If you like, top with heavy cream, parsley, croutons or black pepper for decoration.
  • When removing the skin, put the side that had the seeds in face down.
  • The kabocha may slip, so be very careful.
  • You can use the skin in another recipe, even when cut thickly.
  • Note: If the kabocha has a high water content, reduce the amount of water you use in the rice cooker, and adjust the consistency at the end by adding milk.
