Recipe

Mango and coconut are a match made in heaven; when combined with Thai red curry paste, the flavors in this soup are to die for.

Yield : Serves 4 to 6

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp (10 mL) olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) Thai red curry paste
  • 2 large mangoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) light brown sugar
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) grated ginger
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) salt
  • 1 can (14 oz/400 mL) unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1¼ (300 mL) cups water
  • ½ cup (125 mL) plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) freshly squeezed lime juice

Mango Relish:

  • 1 large mango, diced
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp (45 mL) chopped fresh basil

Directions

1. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until softened, about 6 minutes. Add curry paste and sauté for 1 minute.

2. In a food processor or blender, pureé onion mixture, mangos, brown sugar, ginger and salt until smooth. Add coconut milk, water, yogurt and lime juice; process to combine. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours, or overnight. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, if necessary.

3. Prepare the relish: In a small bowl, combine mango, brown sugar and basil. Let stand for 15 minutes.

4. Ladle soup into chilled bowls and top each with a dollop of mango relish.
