Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Red bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 4 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon, grated Fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Red curry paste
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 13.5-ounce can Coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup, chopped (optional, for garnish) Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the red bell peppers on the sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.
Remove the peppers from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover the bowl with a plate or plastic wrap and let the peppers steam for 10 minutes. This will make it easier to remove the skins.
While the peppers are steaming, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the garlic, fresh ginger, and red curry paste. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Peel the skins off the roasted peppers and remove the seeds and stems. Roughly chop the peppers and add them to the pot.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender.
Stir in the coconut milk, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes, adjusting seasonings as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
