In a deep non stick frying pan (or whatever you find works for you) put a glugg of olive oil in the pan and add all the chopped ingredients plus a squirt of tomato puree, thai green paste 1 tsp the turmeric, lime leaves and push around with a wooden spoon until it all gets a bit of colour then add your bone broth/stock.
Squeeze the whole lime and leave the two halves in the pan. Add the coconut milk and whole chilli, kaffir leaves (optional) and let all the flavours simmer and blend.
Once the squash has cooked, carefully half it lengthways and scoop out the seeds. Rough chop it and put it flesh and skin in the bubbling soup base.
