Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Assemble all ingredients and weigh them accurately.

In a large mixing bowl, combine cubed butternut squash and cut carrots.

Add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil (or avocado oil) to the bowl, along with salt and pepper, and toss until well coated.

Transfer the vegetables to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spreading them out with space between each piece.

Place peeled whole garlic cloves on a small strip of aluminum foil, shiny side up, and seal it into a flat pouch. Place this pouch on the baking sheet with the vegetables.

Bake the vegetables in the preheated oven for about 20-30 minutes.

While the vegetables roast, heat a large soup pot over medium heat and add the rest of the olive oil (or avocado oil) and butter until melted. For a vegan version, substitute butter with 3 tablespoons of olive oil.

Add chopped onion and ginger to the pot and sauté until tender.

Add the roasted garlic from the foil pouch and mash it with a spatula until blended.

Stir in thyme, oregano, and cumin powder, and sauté for about 1 minute.

Add the roasted squash and carrots to the pot.

Substitute chicken broth with vegetable stock for a vegan version and pour it into the pot.

Reduce heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer lightly for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

At about 25 minutes, add heavy cream (or substitute with full fat coconut cream for vegan).

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of glucomannan over the surface and stir well to combine.

Increase heat slightly and bring to a light boil for about 5 minutes to cook the cream and blend flavors.

Using a blender or immersion wand, puree all ingredients until silky smooth and lump-free.

To serve, create a spiral shape with a long sliver of carrot and place it in the bowl, garnishing with parsley or celery leaves.
