Creamy Red Coconut Curry Soup

This publish is sponsored by&nbspThe Tiny Potato Company.

We’re kicking off 2017 with a soup that’s the best illustration of “January meals”. Here in Canada, we’ve been chilling in -18C temperatures for the final couple of days. In my thoughts, this is a respectable excuse to stay away from smoothies, fancy juicing, and salads, all month long. I need to have warming healthier food items. This soup will hold you warm you up on the chilliest of Canadian winter days and fill you up with fresh vegetables. It’s light but it’s creamy.&nbspIt’s spicy, ginger-y, and when it’s loaded with toppings, it’s full of textures of and flavours.

The Minor Potato Business’s Child Boomers, blended along with a hefty dose of light coconut milk, give this soup an added velvety smooth texture&nbspwhile retaining a specific “January lightness”. The base soup is quite darn effortless. Sauté ginger, garlic, carrot, and red curry paste (very spicy!) or milder yellow curry powder in coconut oil. Include vegetable broth and Creamer potatoes. Simmer for 25 minutes. Add a can of light coconut milk and mix till smooth and creamy. Following that it’s all about the toppings! (But you can totally just make this soup with out any toppings – it’s delightful with a slice of crusty bread slathered in vegan butter.)

The crispy fried tofu nuggets are the star topping&nbsp– they turn this basic, healthful&nbspsoup into a satisfyingly delightful meal.&nbspFor the extra “January-ness” I extra lots of julienned spinach and red bell pepper, carrot noodles**, pea sprouts, sliced radish, Thai basil, green onion and a squeeze of lime juice. Some other tasty toppings&nbspmight be:&nbspthinly sliced veggies like mushrooms, zucchini, or purple cabbage, roasted sweet potato, salted cashews, and an extra swirl of coconut milk.

(**After eating the photographed soup I swiftly learned that eating soup coated carrot “noodles” is annoying and messy. If you want to use carrot I’d recommend either chopping the “noodles” or grating the carrot instead.)

Notes on spiciness: Going the intended red curry paste course, this soup is spicy. If you Love really spicy&nbspfood, use 2-three teaspoons of&nbspred curry paste. If you like spicy food use one tablespoon of mild yellow curry powder and 1/2-1 teaspoon red curry paste. If you desire one thing milder, skip the red curry paste and use one tablespoon of&nbspmild yellow curry powder.
