Red Curry Coconut Squash Soup image

This curried squash soup has such an amazing balance of flavors and has officially become my favorite soup. Perfect for a chilly fall day! The fall weather always serves as inspiration for soup, especially butternut squash soups. I really wanted to put a spin on the typical squash soup this time, though. Optional garnishes include sliced scallions, toasted squash seeds, or shrimp. I highly suggest the toasted squash seeds as a garnish. They really add a lot!

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium butternut squash
2 tablespoons butter, or more as needed
1 tablespoon coconut oil
½ onion, chopped
2 roasted red peppers, drained and sliced
2 tablespoons red curry paste
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk (such as Thai Kitchen®)
½ cup skim milk

Steps:

  • Peel butternut squash. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Cut flesh into cubes.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter and coconut oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add squash, red peppers, red curry paste, ginger, and garlic. Mix thoroughly and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add extra butter if the pot dries out, to avoid burning onion or squash.
  • Pour coconut milk and skim milk into the pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer soup, stirring often, until squash is soft, about 25 minutes.
  • Pour 1/3 of the soup into a blender. Cover and hold lid down with a potholder; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Pour into a large bowl. Repeat twice more.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste, but I think that's just because I didn't use enough red curry paste. Other than that, it was a great recipe and I really enjoyed it.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a hotter variety of red curry paste. Other than that, it was a great recipe and I really enjoyed it.
