Ingredients
- 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 2–4 cloves garlic, diced
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 14oz can coconut milk
- 2–3 cups vegetable stock or water
- 2 teaspoon curry powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon coriander
- ¼ teaspoon crushed chillies
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Optional Toppings: Fresh coriander, lime juice and crushed chilies
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat coconut oil over medium heat.
- Add in diced onion and allow to cook, stirring often, for about 2 minutes.
- Add in diced garlic and ginger and continue to stir. Heat until ingredients are soft, but be careful not to burn, about 3 minutes.
- Add spices; curry powder, cumin, coriander and chilies. Allow to heat for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
- Add squash to pot, and stir to coat with curried mixture. Season with salt and allow to cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Pour in stock/water until vegetables are just covered. It is best to just add stock/water to cover squash mixture and add more water at end if needed.
- Raise the heat to medium-high, cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling lower the heat, and simmer for 15-20 minutes , stirring occasionally. With 5 minutes left, add coconut milk to soup and cook until squash is tender.
- Using an immersion blender or in batches using a bar blender, puree until smooth.
- Season with sea salt to taste.
- Serve into bowls and garnish with fresh coriander, lime juice and/or chillies as desired.
- Enjoy!
