Zucchini Soup

 

I decided to make zucchini soup. I found a recipe here using coconut milk. I added potatoes as well.  It was delicious.

Here is my recipe:

4 zucchinis cut into chunks

2 medium potatoes cut into chunks

3 tbs canola oil

3 cloves garlic minced

3 green onions diced

1 small onion diced

1 green chili pepper cut up

3/4 tsp salt

1 tsp sugar

1 tbs grated ginger

3 tbs lemon juice

zest of half a lemon

fresh basil leaves chopped

1/2 tsp coriander (I didn't have fresh cilantro)

1 can coconut milk plus 2 c water

Heat oil in a large pot.  Saute onions, then add green onions, garlic.  Add chili pepper, coriander, ginger, zest, salt, sugar, basil leaves, sugar. Stir in zucchini and potatoes. When softened, add coconut milk, water, lemon juice. Simmer 15-20 minutes until potatoes and zucchini are tender.  Blend if preferred.
