In a pot, saute the onions and garlic with olive oil until translucent. Add the rest of the rasa el hanout, and brown sugar. Scoop the squash out of the skin and into the pot. Add the vegetable broth and coconut milk, cover and cook for 20 minutes on a medium to low simmer.
Puree soup in blender or with a hand held immersion blender until smooth. Add salt, pepper and lemon to taste.
FOR THE SAGE INFUSED OIL
Put 1/4 cup of olive oil into a small pot and heat until warm. Turn off heat, then toss in sage and let it sizzle a little. Cool the oil down. Once cooled, put the sage leaves and oil into a blender with 8 teaspoons of Pot D’Huile. Once blended, strain with a fine strainer, then drizzle on top of the soup for an elevated dining experience.
