red curry squash soup

Ok so when fall comes, I always buy way too much squash. I get overly excited and I make soup for two weeks straight!!

Karl and I had a red curry craving this week and as you know, I had some squash to use so…I made some soup!!! It was actually quite good too! The creaminess of it was amazing…I love creamy soup!

So next time you get a thai craving and you have some squash to use, you know what to make ;)

Recipe by me :)

  • 3 garlic cloves,minced
  • 2 396ml cans of coconut milk
  • 2 Tablespoon of red curry paste
  • 1 Tablespoon of freshly grated ginger
  • 3 Tablespoon of butter
  • 4 Tablespoon of fresh cilantro

Cooking instructions:

  1. Start by cutting your vegetables.
  2. In a big saucepan, melt your butter. Add in the onions. Cook for 3 minutes on medium high. Add in your garlic,ginger,roasted peppers, red curry paste and squash. Cook for another 3 minutes on medium. If the pan is dry, add a bit more butter to make sure the veggies do not burn. Add your coconut milk and bring it to a boil.

    Excellent recipe! Thank you very much. For my personal taste, I added 3tsp brown sugar, and about 1tsp soy sauce. It probably could use a squirt of lime, but so perfect! Thank you :)
