The soup was too thick for my liking. I had to add some extra water to thin it out.

I'm not a big fan of squash, but I really enjoyed this soup. The curry and coconut milk flavors really balance out the squash.

The frizzled leeks are a great addition to this soup. They add a nice crispy texture and a subtle oniony flavor.
