IT BEGINS WITH BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
SUNNY SEEDS
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
LAYER WITH FLAVOUR
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 200ml of boiling water. Place a pot (large enough for the soup) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the grated garlic. Add the roasted butternut, the picked thyme, the diluted stock, the brie cheese, the cheddar cheese, and seasoning. Simmer until slightly reduced and thickening, 7-8 minutes. Blitz in a blender or with a hand blender until a smooth consistency. Loosen with water in 5ml increments if too thick for your liking. Return to the pot and stir through the crème fraîche until heated through and creamy.
BUTTERY ROLL
Halve the roll, and spread butter (optional) or oil over the cut-side. Return the pan to medium heat. When hot, toast the roll, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
