Curried Butternut Soup

Our Curried Butternut Soup delivers all the same luscious, silky flavors of its creamy version but without the butter and cream. By roasting the butternut squash and simmering in chicken stock, we are able to intensify and balance the flavors in this soup.
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450°.
Step 2
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place squash in a bowl, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and toss. Bake at 450° for 35 minutes or until golden and tender.
Step 3
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; swirl to coat. Add onion; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add squash mixture, stock, and curry paste. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in lime juice and coconut milk. Let stand for 15 minutes.
Step 4
Place half of squash mixture in a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour soup into a bowl. Repeat. Divide the soup evenly among 8 bowls, and top evenly with cilantro, coconut, and chile slices.

Tastes rich without butter and cream
LDombeck's Review
Really good recipe. I didn't use the red thai chiles, but did use the curry paste. It wasn't too spicy for the kids. I also used an immersion blender to cut out the 15 minute wait time. Really tasty.

I think this may be my favorite squash soup ever. If you don't like squash soup, you won't magically like this, but if you do this is amazing. I just roasted the squash whole and peeled/chopped it after it had cook. I also have no idea how much my squash weighs, I just grabbed one on the smaller side. I omitted all of the toppings because I was making this to freeze and pack for lunches. It re-heats really well. I will definitely be making this again!!

We enjoyed this recipe, with the following modifications. We omitted the toasted coconut because it is not our taste. I prepared the soup with broth instead of stock, and substituted thinly sliced jalapeno pepper for the Thai red chili. Making this recipe I was able to use one of my favorite kitchen gadgets, the Cuisinart stick blender. When I make this again, I will probably re-warm the soup after adding the coconut milk (leaving the lime juice to add-in just prior to serving.)
