This is another one of the soups I made for my friend who, after her surgery, was on a strict diet for 8 weeks. This one uses spinach and a few other bits-and-bobs to create a savory soup, that is good for you, and warms you up heart and soul. When the weather turns cold and the nights are long, I love putting a soup like this in a mug and sip it in front of a nice fire, while curled up with a good book. Total comfort. Simple ingredients and easy/peasy to make. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

1 teaspoon curry powder
10 ounces frozen spinach, or 16 ounces fresh

How To Make comfort essentials: awesome pureed spinach soup

Step 1

PREP/PREPARE

Step 2

What will you need? You can put this soup together in a single pan, so clean up is a breeze.
Step 3

What to serve with it? You could make it a starter to a larger meal, or just serve a bowl of it with a small side salad, and some crusty bread. Soups like this I like pouring into a mug and sipping on a cold Winter’s eve.
Step 4

How to store it? This soup will last for 3 – 5 days in the fridge, or several months if frozen. I usually put it into 8-ounce mason jars (single serving) and pop them into the freezer. Pull one out, defrost and heat up, and you have a yummy cup of soup.
Step 5

Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
Step 6

Add the oil to a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic, and the curry, and stir for an additional 2 minutes.
Step 7

Add the spinach and diced potato.
Step 8

Stir until the potato begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
Step 9

Add one cup of the vegetable broth, and simmer for about 5 minutes.
Step 10

Add the mixture to a blender, or a food processor fitted with an S-blade, and purée until smooth.
Step 11

Return the purée to the saucepan, then add the coconut milk, and remaining vegetable broth.
Step 12

Bring to the boil, and then lower to a simmer.
Step 13

Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
Step 14

Add the lemon juice, sugar, salt, and pepper.
Step 15

PLATE/PRESENT
Step 16

Serve while nice and hot. Enjoy.
Step 17

Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
