Carrot Coconut Curry Pasta

We were doing a pasta party, and all of the standard sauce bases were covered – tomato, vodka, bolognese. So I wanted to experiment with something different. When I was recovering from knee surgery, my cousin had made me a big batch of carrot coconut curry soup, and I remembered thinking those flavors might be good over pasta. I decided to try making a sauce that was sort of like a thicker version of that soup.
