  19. #### Detailed Steps (SEO Keywords: cook, blend, simmer)
  20. 1. **Preparation**
  21. - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  22. - Cut the butternut squash in half and remove the seeds. Peel it and cut into chunks.
  23. - Chop the pears and onions.
  24. 2. **Roasting Vegetables**
  25. - Toss the butternut squash, chopped pears, and onions with olive oil on a baking sheet. Place them in the oven and roast for about 30-40 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  26. 3. **Sautéing Onions and Garlic**
  27. - While the vegetables are roasting, heat some olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  28. - Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.
  29. - Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  30. 4. **Adding Spices**
  31. - Stir in ground cumin, turmeric powder, paprika, cinnamon, and ginger powder into the onion mixture. Cook for a couple of minutes to allow the spices to release their flavors.
  32. 5. **Combining Ingredients**
  33. - Add the roasted vegetables (including any juices) back into the pot.
  34. - Pour in diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes until all ingredients are well combined and tender.
  35. 6. **Blending**
  36. - Once the soup has reached your desired consistency (you can keep it chunky or blend it to make it smooth), season with salt and pepper according to taste.
  37. - Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro for an extra burst of flavor and color.
  38. #### Tips for a Perfect Soup
  39. - **Roasting:** Roasting enhances the natural sweetness of both butternut squash and pears. It also makes them easier to blend into a smooth soup.
  40. - **Blending:** If you prefer a smoother texture, use an immersion blender right in the pot or transfer some of the soup to a regular blender before returning it to the pot.
  41. #### Conclusion
  42. This curried butternut squash and pear soup is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients. It’s perfect for cozy evenings at home and can be made ahead of time, making it ideal for busy weeknights. Enjoy your meal!
