Instructions

  1. Chop the lemongrass and onion. Spiralize the sweet potato, zucchini, and celery root. 
  2. Add the olive oil to a pot on medium-high heat. Sauté the lemongrass, onion, and ginger for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add the vegetable broth, curry paste, and lime juice. Stir until combined. 
  5. Add the spiralized sweet potato, zucchini, and celery root. Cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar and cook for 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the coconut milk and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt & pepper and add the fresh basil and cilantro (if using). 
  7. Serve soup with an extra wedge of lime on the side.

Notes

  • You can do a combination of vegetable broth and water or a stock cube and water if needed. If you're not vegetarian, you could instead use chicken broth. 
  • How to prep the lemongrass: Cut the dry ends off the stalk, then use your hands to peel the tough outer "shell" of the stalk. Discard that outer shell. Use a knife to slice the newly revealed inner stalk. You can then easily chop those slices up finely. 
  • I keep my ginger in the freezer. It's very easy to grate when frozen. I grate it straight into the pan. 
  • I use Thai Kitchen red curry paste in this recipe. It's vegan. Some others contain fish ingredients so just make sure to read the label if that's an issue. 
  • I use the Paderno 4-Blade Spiralizer.
