COCONUT CURRIED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP



Coconut Curried Butternut Squash Soup image

Most restaurants prepare this perennial favorite with butter, plenty of oil and sometimes even heavy cream. Use coconut milk for a dairy-free, yet creamy and delicious, butternut squash soup. The addition of curry powder provides both flavor and nutrients. The spice that gives curry powder its orange color is turmeric, a powerful antioxidant that's also loaded with iron.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 small butternut squash, halved and seeded (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt, optional
Pinch ground black pepper
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 small onion, diced
2 cups unsalted chicken broth
6 fluid ounces coconut milk
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and place a rack in the middle of the oven.

Put the remaining squash to use in Butternut Squash Salad and Mushroom Ravioli with Brown Butter, Sage and Butternut Squash.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large butternut squash (about 3 pounds)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 small yellow onion, diced (about 1/3 cup)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger (from a 1-inch piece)
Kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon curry powder, preferably Madras
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup (6 ounces) unsweetened coconut milk
Smoked paprika, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Trim the top and bottom of the squash. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds with a large spoon and place the halves, cut-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Rub the squash on all sides with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast until fork-tender, about 50 minutes. Let cool.
  • Use a small spoon to scoop the flesh from the bottom (wider) parts of both squash halves. You should have about 2 cups. Place in a bowl and set aside. Reserve the remaining squash for another use.
  • Place the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the onion is softened but not developing any color; 3 to 4 minutes. Add the curry powder, stir to coat and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the squash and stir to coat.
  • Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced and thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Return to the pot and add the coconut milk. Simmer over low heat until flavorful and reduced slightly, being careful not to let it boil (coconut milk will curdle), about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Divide the soup between 2 bowls and sprinkle each with some smoked paprika.
