What Is IN Curried Zucchini Soup?
Curried zucchini soup only has a few ingredients. It has a chicken stock base, but it is flavored with onion, zucchini, curry powder, salt and is thickened with potato.
For the potato called for in the recipe, you can use either small, diced potatoes or dried instant potatoes. It’s a VERY simple, but tasty soup!
Curried zucchini soup is easy to make. Once made, the soup is pureed slightly in a food processor or blender, which results in a creamy soup, with tiny pieces of zucchini still present to give it some “bite” in texture.
This curried zucchini soup recipe is also very easy on the budget ($). I grow zucchini in my raised bed garden, so I usually have a lot of zucchinis needing to be used each summer.
This recipe is a great way to use up all those zucchinis by making curried zucchini soup!
This recipe for curried zucchini soup serves 6 and is fantastic as a “leftover” or “take to work” kind of soup. It reheats well in the microwave. The little pieces of zucchini give the soup a nice texture.
