This hearty fall soup is rich with the flavors of curry and creaminess of Goat Cheese.
Heat 2 tbsp coconut oil in a large heavy stock pot. Saute the red pepper until soft (3-5 mins). Add the butternut squash and spices and cook for a few minutes until fragrant and heated through.
Add Coconut Milk and broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low, cover and let simmer for 20 minutes (until squash is tender if using fresh).
While the soup is simmering, scoop off the cream at the top of a chilled can of coconut milk. Add to a small dish and combine with the ginger. You can adjust the thickness by adding some of the liquid from the can until you have your preferred consistency. Place back into the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Add the garlic and goat cheese to the soup then puree with an immersion blender until smooth. Ladle into bowls and garish with cilantro, pistashios, crumbled goat cheese and coconut cream.
Soup can easily be frozen. Let cool, then carefully pour or ladle into vacuum sealer bags and seal. Freeze laying flat for easiest storage. To thaw, place in refrigerator overnight to thaw quickly in a hot water bath.
