Not tried that particular one, but a recipe here.

Thanks Sublime; I know it had coconut and lime in it, with jamaican jerk and a bit of curry powder; I might well have to experiment.

Looks lovely - might try that one

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing thread to keep recipes together.

Could always change the cows milk, for coconut milk.

I want to make a soup of sweet potato and butternut squash. OH hates these vegetables as he finds them too sweet (same with tomato based dishses and anything with peppers in) which is a bit of a nightmare for me at the moment as I am on a diet and am getting as much veg in as possible, besides I love those vegetables and anything mediterriany, which he doesnt.

So I want to make a soup of these 2 things, but have a sort of sour or savoury taste to it. Am happy for it to be curry flavoured or whatever, just not too sweet.

Any ideas?

I generally make soup from butternut squash using tomatoes, pesto and mixed, dried beans of whatever variety I have to hand at the time. I can't think of a good reason to not substitute the tomatoes for vegetable stock.

puddy

thanks. red pesto?

smoked paprika always rescues soup ! Sweet potato and roasted red pepper is a good combo , eating now

puddy

thanks, i think the peppers will make it too sweet, similarly with red pesto, although i cant imagine it with green, he probably wont like green anyway (doesnt like anything too flavoured)

put a bit of chilli in it that is lovely takes the edge off the sweetness and gives it a bit of a kick, has to be my fav soup
