Notes
- I find that 1Tbsp of red Thai curry paste is ideal for a mild curry soup for families. You might want to adjust this if you like a spicy butternut squash soup.
- We weighed our butternut squash and it worked out at 1kg. This is because butternut squash sizes can differ, and it gives you an exact weight. Or just stick with one large butternut squash.
