Take 1 butternut squash, 1 small pumpkin, 1 onion, 2 sweet-potatoes, and 2 garlic cloves.
Chop all these up and toss them into a large pot with little drop of hot olive oil to brown for a few minutes.
While they're browning, mix up some stock using 1 veg and 1 chicken stock cube, then pour it into the pot.
Add some cumin powder, salt, pepper and a tiny pinch of curry powder.
Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover the pot and allow it to bubble away for a few hours until all the veg are soft.
Now, allow it to cool a bit, and pour it into a blender where it gets litzed until it becomes smooth with th etexture of lentil soup.
Now pour it back into the pot and put it over a low heat again to keep it warm.
Lastly, strain a tin of mixed beans (kidney beans, haricot beans, mung beans etc) and pour them into the soup and stir through.
Allow everything to warm through, then serve in a bowl with a big lump of freshly baked crusty bread.
