Alkaline Diet Recipe #5: Thai Green Coconut Soup: Please visit my blog to read all of this post
A VERY flavorful, cool soup with a hint of spice! Great served on ice as a cooling summer soup but could even be served warm in the cooler months.
INGREDIENTS
3 Young Thai coconuts, rinsed off
11/2 cups coconut water
2″ piece fresh ginger
1 clove garlic
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
Large handful fresh cilantro, freshly washed
1/2 spoon Artisana Coconut Butter (optional)
Juice of half a lime
1/2 tsp Celtic or Himalayan salt (fine ground works best)
HOW TO MAKE
Wash the Young Thai Coconuts thoroughly, dry and set on a chopping board. Crack open the coconuts, draining off the water into a jug. (Pour through a strainer to catch any bits of shell that may have escaped.) Scrape out the coconut meat and place in a high speed blender. Add all the other ingredients and blend for approximately 1 minute or until well pureed. The thickness of the soup will depend upon the meatiness of the coconut. Serve in bowls with a sprinkling of fresh cilantro leaves. Sluuuuuuurp!
It is an Outstanding Day!
