This Spicy Avocado-Cucumber Soup is a great summer soup to make when you are catering for a crowd. Cold soups are healthy, flavorful and a great thing about this one is that there’s no cooking involved so you don’t have to stand over a hot stove on a hot day.
It couldn’t be easier to make either. Simply puree the ingredients in stages starting with the cucumbers. Once all the ingredients have been blended, place the soup in the refrigerator. As the soup chills, toast the coconut for the garnish. That’s it! Super simple.
To make my version of Spicy Avocado-Cucumber Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
In a food processor or blender, puree the cucumbers until they are completely smooth.
Add the avocado, curry paste, sugar, lime zest and chile to the cucumbers and blend until completely smooth.
Pour in the water, coconut milk and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
Place the soup in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes until chilled.
While the soup chills, place the coconut in a heavy bottomed pan over low heat to toast. Stir a few times, until it is lightly browned and crisp. Allow to cool.
Serve the soup in cups or small sized soup bowls. Garnish with the toasted coconut flakes and sprigs of cilantro.
