I've had several mulligatawny soups, but none that tasted like this. Even the spices tasted off. The apples overpowered it and light coconut milk didn't make it creamy at all. Overall it was disappointing, but the toasted almonds are a nice touch.

Mulligatawny, which literally means “pepper water,” is an English interpretation of an Indian dish. It has seemingly limitless versions, but most have curry and a bit of chicken. We've added tart Granny Smith apples, plenty of spice and a touch of coconut milk.

For sure I will make this again! Even my 4 yr old and 15 month old loved it. I used 1/2 teaspoon of madras and 1teaspoon of regular curry so t wasn't too spicy for the little ones.





I used one apple and substituted the other for a red pepper just give it some color. It was delicious, my 9 yr old daughter couldn't stop commenting on how great it smelled while I was cooking it. Definitely be making this again!





My husband and I loved the soup! I had a only regular curry powder so it wasn't spicy at all even though I usually love the spicy stuff. I omitted the lemon juice. Very easy and delicious!





I love this soup! I do not add the rice but add bite size broccoli pieces when the chicken is added. I also use more spice. Delicious!
