- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger minced
- 2 lbs butternut squash peeled, seeded and cut into pieces, about 6 cups
- 1 tablespoon red curry paste adjust more to taste
- 1.5 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 can coconut milk 14oz canned full fat
- 1/2 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- black pepper add to taste (optional)
- 1/2 lime juice
For garnish
- 2 tablespoon roasted peanuts chopped
- 2 tablespoon coconut milk

Instructions
- Start the instant pot in Saute mode and heat oil in it. Add diced onions, ginger and garlic and sauté for about 3 minutes.
- Add butternut squash, red curry paste, broth and stir to combine. Press Cancel and close lid with vent in sealing position.
- Change the instant pot setting to manual or pressure cook mode at high pressure for 8 mins.
- After the instant pot beeps, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes then release the pressure manually.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup to a creamy texture. You can also transfer to a blender such as Vitamix to blend the soup. Be careful while blending to avoid hot splatters.
- Add coconut milk, lime juice and stir well. Add salt, pepper and chili flakes to taste.
- Garnish the soup with cilantro, coconut milk and peanuts. Serve hot with a side of crusty bread!
Equipments used:
Notes
- Adjust Sweetness: Add sugar or maple syrup if needed. I did not as the squash had perfect sweetness.
- Replacement for coconut milk: You can use heavy whipping cream in place of coconut milk. Note that this will make the soup non-vegan.
- Variations to make Butternut Squash Soup
- Created: This recipe was created in a 6qt Instant Pot DUO60 Multi-use Pressure Cooker.
- Butternut Squash Apple Soup - Add a green apple cut into pieces along with the butternut squash before pressure cooking.
- Curried Butternut Squash Soup - Add a tablespoon of curry powder in place of the red curry paste.
- Coconut Butternut Squash Soup - Add more coconut milk to this recipe, about one 14oz can to get a prominent coconutty taste.
- Spicy Butternut Squash Soup - Increase the amount of red curry paste and add chili flakes to your taste while serving.
