Directions

In a medium pot, heat olive oil over a medium high flame. Add onion and squash to the pot, and add a pinch of salt. Sauté until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with the curry powder and a grind or two of black pepper. Stir to mix. Cook one minute more. Pour in vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the onion and squash are cooked through. Puree if desired. Taste for salt. Remove the soup from the heat. Whisk in the Greek yogurt and the lime juice.
Serve warm or chilled, garnished with chopped cilantro.

Chef Tips

Go easy when adding the salt in step 1. Even low sodium stock can be very salty, and once you’ve put the salt in, it’s hard to take out. You can always adjust the salt when the soup is cooked.
