Ideal for a cozy night in or a quick, impressive starter for guests, this soup is both delicious and easy to make. Let's dive into this simple and satisfying recipe that brings the taste of Thailand to your kitchen.
Instructions:
- Chop the red hot chili pepper finely. Remove seeds if you prefer less heat.
- Wash and dry the coriander leaves, then chop them roughly.
- In a large pot or saucepan, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of curry paste to the pot and cook, stirring frequently, for about 1-2 minutes. This helps to release the flavors and aroma of the curry paste.
- Pour in the 4 cups of vegetable broth and bring it to a boil.
- Add the 1 cup of canned pumpkin, stirring well to combine.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Stir in the 1 cup of coconut milk and the finely chopped red hot chili pepper.
- Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes, ensuring that it is heated through.
- If you prefer a smooth consistency, you can use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.
- Taste the soup and add salt or additional seasoning if needed.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh coriander leaves.
- Serve the soup hot, garnished with additional coriander leaves if desired. Enjoy your Simple Thai Pumpkin Soup with some crusty bread or as is.
Tips:
- 1: For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender or regular blender to puree the soup before serving.
- 2: Adjust the amount of curry paste according to your heat preference. If you like it spicier, feel free to add more!
- 3: If you prefer a thicker soup, reduce the amount of vegetable broth slightly or let the soup simmer longer until it reaches your desired consistency.
- 4: Consider adding other veggies, like sweet potatoes or carrots, to add more depth and nutrition to the soup.
- 5: Garnish with additional fresh coriander, a squeeze of lime juice, or a sprinkle of crushed peanuts for extra flavor and texture.
