Garden Fresh Asparagus Soup

This aromatic green curry soup is packed with spinach, mushrooms, green beans and broccoli stems (save the florets for another night). Green curry paste gives this soup a delicately spicy broth. The vegetables are cooked just enough to be tender, but retain their freshness and distinct textures.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon curry powder

  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon, divided

  • 2 cups diced peeled red potatoes

  • 3 cups vegetable broth, or reduced-sodium chicken broth

  • 1 cup “lite” coconut milk

  • 2 cups 1/2-inch pieces trimmed asparagus, (about 1 bunch)

  • Freshly ground pepper to taste

  • ¼ cup crème fraîche or reduced-fat sour cream (see Note)
