Steps to make Easy Butternut Squash Soup

4	Fry the sage	2
In a small skillet, heat ¼ cup olive oil until hot. Add the sage leaves and fry in batches for about 10-15 seconds or until the oil stops sizzling around the edges. Carefully transfer the leaves to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
5	Purée the soup	1
Use an immersion blender to puréе the soup. Alternatively, cool slightly and puréе the soup in batches in a blender, then return to the pot.
