14ozcan of coconut milkDo not use light coconut milk
215 oz cans of cannellini beans, drained
1TBSPfish sauce
4scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
1lime, zested and juice
For garnish
Thinly sliced scallions
Fresh parsley or cilantro
Lime wedges, for an extra squeeze of fresh lime juice
Hot chili sauce, like Sriracha, sambal oelek, or crispy chili oil
Instructions
Heat 2 TBSP of olive oil over medium-low in a large stock pot or Dutch oven. Add the onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes to slightly soften.
Add the another TBSP of oil and then add the carrots, kale, and zucchini. Simmer until the kale has wilted down and all the veggies are tender, stirring frequently.
Pop the curry paste, ginger, and garlic into the pot and stir well. Let it all simmer, stirring to ensure the curry paste is well distributed and no longer clumpy.
Pour in the vegetable broth, coconut milk, and fish sauce. Bring it all to a low simmer; scrape up any brown bits from the pan. These add flavor!
Finally add in the white beans and stir in the lime zest. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the soup from the heat. Stir in the fresh lime juice and serve with garnishes like cilantro or parsley, chopped scallions, and even some hot chili sauce if you like a little heat!
Notes
Make sure to use full fat coconut milk, not light or fat free.
