Healthy Meat & Poultry Recipes Healthy Chicken Recipes Healthy Chicken Soup Recipes Healthy Chicken Rice Soup Recipes Mulligatawny Soup 3.8 (5) 5 Reviews This is a soup with a long history (references to it in English go back to 1784) that can now be conveniently made in a modern appliance. Although it's technically an English soup, its origins are decidedly Indian. (The name loosely means "pepper water" in the Tamil language of Southern India.) The sweetness of apple and coconut milk counterbalances the garlic, ginger, curry and cayenne.
