How to Prepare Roasted Potimarron Thai Soup [Vegan]
- Preheat the oven to 392°F. Divide each potimarron squash into two parts by slicing along the middle circumference with a butcher’s knife. Scoop out the middle seeded part with a spoon.
- Slice off a thin segment at the bottom of each piece to create a flat surface (so that they stand up straight). Place the potimarron sections on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush the flesh with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast on middle rack for 30–40 minutes (depending on size), or until the flesh is fork tender and caramelised. When done, allow to cool. Scoop out flesh and measure 4 cups. You can refridgerate or freeze remaining flesh in a sealed container for future use.
- In a big soup pot, heat the vegetable oil and lower the heat to medium-low. Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, lemongrass and red curry paste. Mix with wooden spoon until combined. Add the water and cook for 3 more minutes mixing often.
- Add the 4 cups of roasted potimarron flesh and mix this in well with the onion and spice mixture. Add the broth, stirring to incorporate. Add the basil and the lime peel sliver and mix. Increase the heat and bring to the boil then quickly reduce to a low simmer. Allow to simmer with lid half on for 20 minutes, stirring from time to time.
- Add the coconut milk and lime juice and mix these in well on low heat. Remove the lemongrass segments but leave in the basil leaves and lime peel sliver in the soup. Process the soup directly in the pot with a handheld blender until creamy-smooth. Add salt. Do a test taste and add more coconut milk and/or broth to adjust the spiciness and consistency that suit your taste.
- Take off the heat and let the soup settle for 5 minutes or longer. Serve warm and garnish with fresh coriander, roasted pumpkin or sesame seeds or as desired.
