Thai Kabocha Butternut Squash Soup
🔪 Prep Time: 15 minutes
🍳Cook Time: 25 minutes
🕒Total Time: 45 minutes
🍴Serving Size: 6-8
Ingredients:
1/2 Kabocha Squash, peeled & cubed
1/2 Butternut Squash, peeled & cubed
3 small Carrots, peeled
1/2 large Onion, roughly chopped
3-4 cloves Garlic, minced
1 1/2 tsp Ginger
1/2 Serrano Pepper, diced
2 cups Vegetable Broth (@traderjoeslist)
1 cup Coconut Milk (@traderjoes)
Spices - Hot Thai Curry Seasoning, Turmeric, Salt & Pepper
Instructions:
Clean and prep all of your veggies.
Then add your butternut, kabocha and carrots to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Spray each side with EVOO. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in the toaster oven (@ninjakitchen) for 10 mins at 375°. Remove the kabocha and cook the remaining for another 5 mins (veggies should be fork tender).
Meanwhile, add some EVOO (@bertolli_us) to your @instantpotofficial & use the ‘Sauté’ mode to cook the onion, garlic and ginger. I keep it on the ‘Less’ mode so I can multitask without it burning! Cook until the onions are brown and soft (~5-6 mins).
Once cooked, add in your Serrano pepper & sauté for another minute (include the seeds for a spicier kick!). Add in your broth, roasted veggies, coconut milk and a generous amount of all spices (you can always add in more later!). Give it a quick whirl before hitting ‘Cancel’ & closing the lid.
Switch to ‘Soup’ mode on High Pressure & cook for 12 mins (ensure the vent knob is turned to ‘Sealing’). Once done, switch to ‘Keep Warm’ for 5 mins. Then, slowly release the pressure by turning the vent knob to ‘Venting’ (like to use a spoon or towel so I don’t burn myself). Once the metal piece next to it drops, it is ready to open.
Finally, use an immersion blender (or a countertop blender) to purée your soup. Serve hot and garnish with microgreens!
Notes & Tips:
Keeps up to a week in the fridge!
