HOW DO YOU MAKE THAI PEANUT CHICKPEA SOUP?

This delicious soup recipe is so simple to make, just toss everything, except the peanut butter into your Instant Pot (or large pot on stove top). Follow the cooking directions below for your method of choice.

Stir in the peanut butter once your soup is ready and garnish with green onion, chopped peanuts, sriracha, or any other desired topping.

For my veggies, I’m using:
sweet potato
red bell pepper
zucchini
mushrooms
corn

Feel free to customize to suit your tastes. You may sub the sweet potatoes for white, if preferred.

Or you can add chopped onion, peas, cauliflower, or any of your favourite vegetables.

I use canned chickpeas here because the vegetables will cook quickly and dry chickpeas will not cook well in one pot.

If you do prefer using dry chickpeas, and you’re using the stove top method, you can soak them overnight, then cook the chickpeas in the broth and add the veggies in the last 15-20 minutes of cooking for similar results.

You may need a little extra broth to make up for the extra cooking time.

When your soup is ready, stir in the peanut butter and serve.

You’re going to LOVE this Thai peanut chickpea soup! It’s:
nutty
savoury
rich
creamy
oil free
vegan
gluten free
EASY to make
and mouth watering

The flavours here are truly incredible. This dish would also be great served over a b

ed of rice, if you’re not quite feeling like soup.

So whether you prefer to enjoy this as a soup, or ladled over rice, this recipe will certainly be a winner.
