Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the squash (see tips within the blog post on how to do this easily).
  2. Add the oil and onion to a soup pot over medium-high heat and sauté for 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the garlic, ginger, and curry paste, and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Add the vegetable broth and squash. Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a gentle boil. Cover (with the lid slightly ajar) and reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the squash is tender. 
  5. Blend the soup until smooth (I recommend letting it cool a bit to do this more safely). Use an immersion blender or a regular blender (and do it in batches).
  6. Add the coconut milk to the soup. Give it a stir and let it heat through. Season with salt & pepper as needed. Garnish as desired. If you find the soup a bit sweet, I suggest adding some lime juice as needed.

Notes

  • I used Thai Kitchen red curry paste and coconut milk (I find this brand of coconut milk is thicker and creamier than others I've tried).
  • This is the zester/grater I used to grate the ginger. I always keep some ginger in my freezer so I have some on-hand when needed. It's also much easier to grate when it's frozen.
