Steps:
- In a heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven sauté onion, garlic, ginger, and jalapeño in coconut oil, over medium heat for about 5 minutes until tender and fragrant.
- Add the salt, zucchini and curry powder. Sauté a few minutes more.
- Add 2 cups of the broth. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until the summer squash is tender, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add two cups of cold broth to the blender along with all the simmered ingredients. (Be so careful as hot liquids tend to burst out in a blender, making an incredible mess, and can burn you- so cover firmly with a kitchen towel.)
- Blend with the lid vented, until smooth. Add fresh mint and cilantro, blend until incorporated. We like seeing the green flecks of herbs but your choice on how smooth to blend.
- Reheat to serve.
- Garnish with cilantro, mint,

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it is tender, about 5 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt, the garlic and the zucchini and stir for about a minute, until the garlic smells fragrant. Add the curry powder, stir together, and add the stock or water, the rice and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Taste and adjust salt.
- Purée the soup with an immersion blender or a food mill or in batches in a blender, taking care to remove the lid or take out the center insert and to cover with a towel to avoid hot splashes. Return to the pot, heat through, add pepper and cayenne to taste and stir in the lemon juice. Serve, garnishing each bowl with paper-thin slices of zucchini, chopped chives and croutons if desired.

Steps:
- In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the curry powder, salt, and cayenne, stir, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the zucchini, reduce to medium heat, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the zucchini is very tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat. With a hand-held immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor, puree the soup. Return to medium heat and stir in the cream. Simmer for 3 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.
- Pour into a clean container and let cool slightly. Refrigerate until well chilled, 4 to 6 hours.
- To serve, ladle into large cups, garnish with cilantro, and serve with hot pappadums or pita toast. This soup may be served hot or cold.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for zucchini that is firm and green, and use fresh herbs and spices whenever possible.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the spices to your taste: The amount of curry powder and cayenne pepper called for in this recipe is just a starting point. If you like your soup spicier, feel free to add more. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or garam masala.
- Let the soup simmer for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. If you're short on time, you can simmer the soup for a shorter amount of time, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include yogurt, sour cream, cilantro, and croutons.
Conclusion:
Curried zucchini soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With its creamy texture and flavorful broth, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
