Coconut Curry Vegetable Soup

October 8, 2017 By Kaitlin McGinn 12 Comments

Warmly satisfying Coconut Curry Vegetable Soup with a silky, golden broth. Super flavorful yet minimal prep and just 7 ingredients. (Vegan, gluten-free, oil-free.)

I love cozy, warming meals, and this simple 7-ingredient soup only takes about 40 minutes from start to finish. It quickly develops a silky, golden broth that’s rich with flavor (and not to mention packed with veggies).

I enjoy the challenge of making a recipe as simple as possible without skimping on flavor. For this soup, you chop a few veggies, throw everything together in a pot, and then simmer to golden perfection.

Curry powder is the wonderful ingredient that brings it all together. It’s such a beautiful spice blend that adds instant coziness and flavor. We also enjoy curry powder in:

  • Coconut Curry Lentil Soup
  • Curried Orange Rice Salad
  • Vegan Butter Chickpeas

Feel free to serve this soup with with warm pita/naan bread because it’s lovely dipped in the flavorful, silky broth.

    What kind of coconut milk did you use for this recipe? Full-fat or light?

    I made this tonight with a few minor adjustments (I sauteed onion, garlic, and ginger before throwing everything else in the pot. I also threw in 1/2 a bag of spinach in with the peas.). My whole family absolutely loved this soup. It was so satisfying and tasty without being overly heavy. Perfect for a cool winter night! Thanks so much for the recipe!5 stars

    Do you feel it wouldnt be as good without the peas? Trying to decide if I should wait to make it tomorrow when I can grab some.

      Hi Sandra! Yes, feel free to omit the peas if you don’t have any! This recipe is pretty forgiving and versatile. You could also try adding bell pepper, green beans, celery, broccoli, etc. (Or just simply leave the peas out altogether and it should be tasty!) Hope you enjoy 🙂 Wishing you a wonderful, cozy day!

    Hi,

    Do you make the vegetable broth or buy it already made?

    Thanks

      Hi Sarah! I use pre-made boxed vegetable broth (usually the organic Imagine or Field Day brands.) 🙂 However there are many tutorials/guides online for making your own if you wish!

    I purchased Balti Curry by accident to make this soup. Would it affect the flavor much?

      Hi Julie! Apologies for the delay in my response. I’m not familiar with Balti curry specifically, but curry powder spice blends tend to vary by region so I’m guessing you should be able to substitute it just fine if it’s a flavor/blend you enjoy! Would love to hear if you gave it a go and how it went. (Also curious to hear which brand you purchased – interested in looking it up! Thanks.) 🙂
