- Notes:
- 1)This soup is similar to Soto Ayam (Chicken Soup from Malaysia) and is typical of many soups found at hawker stalls/stands on the streets in southeast Asia; This recipe uses a commercial brand curry gravy; If the brands noted above are not available, substitute curry powder and spices to taste; For ideas on spices and amounts do a search on the Internet "Malaysia Singapore Curry Recipes"
- 2)This soup is medium hot using the curry paste brands, so if desired use less curry paste to taste
WINTER SQUASH IN COCONUT MILK (FUSION SOUP)
Is it sweet? Is it savory? Eat it warm? Eat it cold? Puree it? Leave it chunky? Yes to all! Start or finish the meal; add more brown sugar or honey if you like it sweeter. It's good every which way. For a low fat version, skip the butter and use lite coconut milk. From Mark Bittman in the New York Times. Prep time does not include time to cool.
