Curried Butternut Squash, Carrot, Sweet Potato Soup Recipe

Hi! I’m Andy

Welcome to my kitchen.
I hope to inspire you to grow as a home cook!

This velvety smooth vegetable soup could honestly be the definition of comfort food. Great balance of flavours, sweet, spice, crunch, smooth. It has a little bit of everything and is perfect for when those cooler weather months. The bonus is this recipe is silly, easy to make and will be a crowd-pleaser for certain!

Roasting your vegetables

For this recipe, I am using a mixture of harvested vegetables like butternut squash, sweet potato, and carrots. Feel free to experiment here and use what you have on hand. I love the flavour of roasted butternut squash, as it has a depth and sweetness that is just so delicious. I had just picked some fresh carrots from my garden, which are a thing of beauty. The carrots add a great texture and a sweetness that I really enjoy. I also added some sweet potato to help bulk things up, as well as a couple of roasted onions for depth of flavour.

Blending your soup

You have a few options for making your soup velvety smooth. If you have a blender, you can easily pour the softened veg and broth into the blender and blend to the consistency you are searching for. If you have a handheld immersion blender, even better as you won’t need to dirty the blender. If you have no blender of any sort, find yourself a potato masher and go to work! Might not end up velvety smooth, but it will still taste delicious!

Roasting vegetables

Let’s Breakdown The Ingredients!

Butternut Squash – A great vegetable that just loves to be roasted! No need to take the skin off!

Yellow onions- I like to cut the onions in half and roast them until they are a lovely dark brown. Loaded with flavours!

Sweet Potato- The caramelized roasted sweet potatoes add lovely colour and flavour to the soup. 

Carrots- Sweet in flavour and another amazing vegetable to roast

Coconut milk- 1 can of full-fat coconut milk gives this soup a lovely flavour and balances perfectly with the curry powder.

Stock- Homemade is best, but chicken or vegetable stock is perfect for this dish.

Spices- Curry powder, cinnamon, and cumin bring the flavour notes here!

Maple Syrup- Just a hint of sweetness to bring everything together.

Toppings- Toasted croutons, flaked coconut, and fresh cilantro.
