Turmeric Zucchini & Coconut Soup

Ingredients

1 tablespoon ghee (coconut oil is fine as well)
1 large brown onion, diced
½ teaspoon sea salt
2 medium zucchini (about 1 lb), diced into cubes
3 cloves garlic, diced
2 teaspoons turmeric powder
1 teaspoon mild curry powder
¼ teaspoon white pepper (black is also okay)
1 cup vegetable stock
1 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional)
Juice of ½ small lime (about 2 tablespoons)
Fresh coriander/cilantro for garnish

Directions

Heat the ghee in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring a few times, until softened and golden.

Add salt, zucchini and garlic and stir through the onion. Then add the turmeric, curry powder and pepper and stir through a few times to release the aromas.

Then add the stock, coconut milk and fish sauce and stir through. Bring to boil, then turn the heat down to low. Cook for 10 minutes, simmering and covered with a lid.

Finally, add the juice of ½ lime and stir through. Serve with a few fresh coriander leaves on top.
