Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Arrange the halved squash on a baking sheet and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
2. Heat oil or butter in a pot placed over medium-high heat. Sauté the onions and curry powder until onions are soft.
3. Scoop out the flesh of the squash with a spoon, then add to the pot. Add stock and cinnamon, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
5. Using an immersion blender (best option) or a food processor (proceed by batches), blend the soup until you get the desired texture. Return to the pot over low heat, adjust seasoning if necessary.
6. Fry the sliced mushrooms in a skillet with few drops of vegetable oil or butter.
7. Divide soup into bowls, top with a slice of toasted bread and arrange mushrooms on top. Serve immediately, sprinkled with fresh cracked black pepper.

Too much curry for my taste. I will make again with less.
