That sounds great, Lemongrass might be a bit of a pain to get hold of but otherwise I have most of that stuff. 

 

I think most supermarkets keep fresh lemongrass stalks in the same section where you find garlic, ginger and chillies. Because this recipe doesn't call for the lemongrass to be sliced up, it doesn't matter if you leave the tougher outer layer on either.

Yeah it's not that hard I suppose, I just don't tend to go to the larger supermarkets that would do it. 

 

Love Thai food so worth getting to make curries with anyway

1 quite large butternut squash, peeled and diced into half-inch pieces

1 medium onion, chopped

1.5-inch piece of ginger, grated

2 cloves of garlic, crushed/grated

1 chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

1 stick of lemongrass, bashed

1 lime

1-1.5 litres of stock or water

1 small tin of coconut milk

1 small handful of coriander, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

 

Sweat the onion in a pan in vegetable/sunflower/ground nut oil (not olive oil as it has a stronger flavour than the others) until it softens but doesn't colour. Add the ginger, garlic and chilli and cook for a couple of minutes before adding the butternut squash. Season and mix through the onion and aromatics before allowing to cook on a medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add the stock and simmer the whole thing for around 20 minutes (or until you think the squash is tender). Remove the lemongrass and liquidise with a stick blender or in a blender jug, and put back on the heat for a couple of minutes, squeezing in the juice of half a lime and adding the coriander.

 

Serve with bread or your accompaniments of choice, along with extra chopped chilli, a bit more coriander and the remaining lime in wedges. Swirl in a teaspoon of the coconut milk to taste.

 

 

 

Make one almost identical to that, but it has dried cumin and coriander too.

Made a particularly nice sweet potato, beetroot and onion soup yesterday. The beetroot not only adds an interesting flavour, but also gives it a rich colour, somewhat akin to a tomato soup.

It's a shop bought one, but Cully & Sully chicken and vegetable soup is awesome. If I haven't already mentioned it. I might have. Thick, gloopy, lovely soupage.

Not an anti veggie thing but can't take to tofu.

Not a recommendation but saw this for sale in Tesco’s recently. Anyone fancy trying it? 

[Remmie]

Saw a weird recipe on youtube and had to try it, step forward Gherkin soup:
