For another international flair, you might also want to try this Tuscan Soup recipe, or this delicious and classic cheese broccoli soup!

The weather is cooling down fast and snow is already falling in some places, or in our case – all over the place.

This means it is comforting soup season, and right now I’m simply crazy about fresh homemade soups!

While I often make my favourite homemade soups such as this Roasted Tomato Soup, I’m actually in full-on pumpkin mode. As evidenced by my constant craving for Pumpkin Creme Brûlée!

Comforting Thai Pumpkin and Coconut Soup

This Thai Pumpkin and Coconut Soup is a recipe that is intended for cook evenings. It’s definitely one to try and make again and again – creamy and delicious in every bite!

The truth is, soup is the perfect way to get a fix of comfort food without eating a super heavy, creamy meal.

This amazing Thai-style Curried Pumpkin Soup definitely ticks the comforting, warming, and filling boxes without weighing you down.

At first I wasn’t sure if the combination was going to be as good as I had hoped. Turns out, it’s now a favourite in our house!

How do you make Thai pumpkin soup?

Making this Pumpkin Coconut Soup is really easy, the trick is to add ingredients so the flavour mixes with each other perfectly before the next step.

First comes the onion then the pumpkin and potato, curry paste then vegetables.

A grand finish is with the creamy goodness of the coconut milk. Garnish with the mixture of peanuts, coriander, green onion and lime juice – perfection!

With each step the soup becomes more and more fragrant, it’s a smell that will warm the house and your senses before your belly.

This soup has a bit of kick from curry pasta and plenty of creaminess from yummy coconut milk.

If super spicy soup isn’t for you, you can substitute the curry paste for curry powder and add green onions instead of chives.

    Holy yum! Have to admit that I’ll probably roast that squash a little first as I really dislike cutting them into chunks when they are raw.

    Made this for supper tonight. It was extremely rich and delicious. A heavy bisque-like texture that worked really well with the garlic butter biscuits fresh and hot out of the oven. Comforting and very filling on a chilly autumn evening. The spice of the Thai red curry helped warm the tummy too. We even have some left over for lunch tomorrow.

    Recipe requires editing:

    Intro refers to ‘curry pasta’ and the recipe says prep time is 23hrs and 54 min (really?)

      Just changed pasta to paste, thanks for catching that. Not sure why it says the prep time, there was nothing in the field so it must be a recipe card glitch. I added a prep time to it, and it changed. Again, thanks for the heads up.

    Can I use frozen fresh frozen butternut squash? Do i need to defrost before using it in the recipe?

    Thank you.

      I don’t see why not. I would defrost myself, but I’m not sure if it’s a must-do.

    I accidentally put in too much curry so it was not edible. My husband added some almond butter (we didn’t have peanut butter) and saved the dish! He doesn’t love soup but is raving about this recipe. Will definitely make again, thanks!
