WHO LIKES CURRY? HAVE YOU EVER HAD A GREEN CURRY SOUP.. IT'S GOOD.. NO, IT'S BETTER THAN GOOD.. IT'S GREAT!

In fact, it's a cracker of a soup!

This recipe will serve two so double it up if you have more mouths to feed.

You need:
1 tbsp of ghee or coconut or vegetable oil. She always uses coconut oil.
1 hot red or green chilli which you must de-seed and chop quite finely.
1 tsp of ginger paste, you make this by grating a ginger root with a very fine small grater.
1/2 a stalk of lemon grass chopped.
4 dried lime leaves chopped.
4 tbsp of Thai green curry paste.
1 tbsp of creamed coconut.
600gms - 1.5lbs of cauliflower separated into small florets.
800mls - 1.5 pints of boiling water.
1/2 tsp of salt.
150gms - 5 & 1/2 ozs of peas or edamame soya beans either fresh or frozen.
10gms  - 1/4oz of coriander leaves chopped.
Juice of 1 lime fresh.

How to do it.

Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the chilli, ginger paste, lemon grass, lime leaves & curry paste and fry for about a minute over a medium heat.

Add the creamed coconut, cauliflower, boiling water and salt and cover with a lid, cook at a very gentle boil for about 7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. DON'T OVERCOOK IT!

Blend the soup with a hand blender or in a liquidiser until it is smooth.

Return it to the pan, bring it back to a gentle boil and add the peas and or beans, cook for 1 minute, add the chopped coriander and the lime juice just before serving this delicious soup.

QUICK.. TASTY.. PRETTY.. EASY.. SLURP!

Time for my bedtime. Hopefully I will get her to post another recipe tomorrow, I think it will be Minced Chilli Pork Noodles.

I know she's buying pork fillet from Dickinsons, our very lubblyjubbly butchers tomorrow, she has a proper old fashioned mincer so she'll cut off some of the fillet to make this.

No waste on a fillet, so she'll freeze the rest. Good night to you all, stay safe wherever you are.

GeeGee Parrot.
