Curried Wild Rice and Squash Soup
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Cook the wild rice according to package instructions.
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Place the squash halves on a baking sheet, cut side down, and roast for about 40 minutes or until tender. Let it cool, then scoop out the flesh.
-
In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
-
Add the curry powder, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to coat the onions and garlic with the spices.
-
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.
-
Add the roasted butternut squash and cooked wild rice to the pot. Stir in the coconut milk and simmer for another 10 minutes.
-
Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches.
-
Return the soup to the stove and heat over low heat. Stir in the lime juice.
-
Serve the curried wild rice and squash soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
