THAI COCONUT, BROCCOLI AND CORIANDER SOUP

Steps:

• Place the curry paste in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the coconut milk, water, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli, cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the broccoli is tender. Remove from the heat and add the spinach leaves and half the cilantro.
• Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Divide among serving bowls and top with the extra spinach, remaining cilantro, scallions and shallots.

THAI COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add prawns and sear both sides until light golden (doesn't need to cook inside). Remove onto plate.
• Turn heat down to medium. If pot is looking dry, add a touch of extra oil.
• Add garlic, ginger and lemongrass. Saute for 20 seconds until garlic is golden.
• Add sugar and fish sauce. Stir and cook for 30 seconds - it should look like caramel.
• Add chilli paste, coriander and curry powder. Stir and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add chicken broth and coconut milk. Stir and bring to simmer.
• Simmer for 2 minutes, then add lime zest and return prawns into broth.
• Cook for 2 minutes just to reheat and finish cooking the prawns.

CURRIED CARROT AND COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the butter until the foam subsides. Add the diced chopped onions, sprinkle with salt, stir to coat with butter. Add the chopped carrots along with the spices. Stir and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
• Add the stock; there should be enough to cover the vegetables. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the carrots are cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• If you have an immersion blender, purée the soup in the pot. If not, wait until the soup cools slightly, and purée in a food processor. Add enough coconut milk (and a little more stock or water if necessary) to bring the soup to the consistency you want. Adjust the seasoning (depending on the stock you use, you may need more or less salt), and lime juice to taste. Garnish and serve.
