Instant Pot Coconut Curry Zucchini Soup
Vegan And Gluten Free

It's Zucchini Time
There have been years when I've planted so many zucchini that I was ready to set the garden on fire.  This year I promised myself I would scale back and only planted a single zucchini. However, it's so prolific that I'm still having a hard time keeping up with it. So you may be seeing more zucchini recipes this summer.

Today's recipe also uses potatoes since we just harvested over 50 pounds of new potatoes a few days ago. They are so easy to grow and what's better than a freshly harvested new potato?

Although I cook this in my Instant Pot, you can easily make this on the stovetop. I include notes on stovetop directions below.

Coconut Curry Zucchini Soup
Vegan, Gluten and Dairy Free
[Makes 9 Cups]

Instant Pot Pressure Cooker
Hand Immersion Blender

1 medium onion, chopped (~1 1/2 cups)
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1 tablespoon sweet curry
1/2 teaspoon hot curry, or to taste
2 pounds zucchini, sliced
1 pound new potatoes, scrubbed and diced
1 can lite coconut milk
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice

Heat the oil in the Instant Pot using the SAUTE function. Add the onions and ginger and cook for 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Turn off the Instant Pot and stir in the sweet and hot curry. (To make on the stovetop, do this step in a large saucepan.)

Add the zucchini, potatoes, broth, coconut milk and salt.

Secure the lid, press the MANUAL button, and set for 5 minutes under high pressure. When done, press the OFF button and quickly release the pressure. (To make this on the stovetop, simmer in the large sauce, covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Continue with recipe.)

Using a hand immersion blender, blend the soup until fairly smooth but leaving some small chunks of zucchini and potatoes. Stir in the lime juice and adjust salt if necessary and serve.

I just purchased an instant pot and am looking for ways to learn to use it. This recipe looks simple enough. I get my zucchini from a local farmer- wish I could grow my own-
