Ingredients
1.6 package (10 oz) Broccoli, frozen 2 clove Garlic 1 tsp Ginger, ground 1 tsp Cardamom, ground 1 tsp Cumin seed 1 tsp Coriander leaf, dried 3 cup, cubes Butternut Squash 1 tsp Pepper, red or cayenne .5 tsp Salt .25 tsp Pepper, black 1.5 cup Milk, 2%, with added nonfat milk solids, without added vit A 4 cup Chicken stock, home-prepared 2 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap 2 cup, shredded Cheddar Cheese 2 tbsp Butter, unsalted 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, raw
Heat a large heavy bottom pot over medium heat.
Add the coconut oil and throw in your onion, garlic and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cook gently for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are sweet and soft.
Add the ginger, curry paste, curry powder and cayenne and stir until incorporated. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the squash, broccoli and broth to the pot, bring to a boil, cover and simmer for around 35-45 minutes.
When the squash is soft and cooked through, whiz the soup with an immersion blender or pour it into a standard blender or food processor and pulse until you have a smooth puree. (Take a few of the broccoli florets out, puree the soup and then re-add the broccoli florets back so there is a little chunkiness to the soup.)
Return the soup back to it's pot and place over medium heat.
Add the coconut milk, salt and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes or until it is warmed through. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and goat cheese, stirring until melted. If the soup seems too thick, add 1/4 cup water at a time until your desired consistency is reached. Taste and season with salt and pepper to your liking.Serve the soup in hollowed out pumpkin bread bowls and top with crumbled goat cheese and fresh chopped cilantro.
