      Nice, 4 1/2 stars. I did puree most of the soup and mixed it into the unpureed part to look better. I added the cilantro after. It's best not to reheat with the cilantro added as a second time I did that and it wilted and changed from bright green to a dull green. I liked the swirl on top very much. I used, soft dried sulfured orange apricots, a bit less fresh ginger, Garam Masala - Aromatic Kashmiri Spice Blend for Spicy Cooking!, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, extra virgin olive oil in place of the canola oil to be healthier, pomegranate molasses, plus the rest of the ingredients. This was nice for a change for sure but I don't think I will make it encore.

      This was very nice, although I found that it was too sweet and not spicy enough for my tastes. Next time I'll reduce the apricot by a third. For the tarka, I'll use 3/4 tsp. cumin, 1/2 tsp. or more chile flakes, and the pomegranate molasses (which was a delicious addition). I'll definitely make this again - thank you!

      Absolutely delicious! I made it for a dinner party and it disappeared! I used pomegranate juice and it was a great touch. Thanks so much!

      I cookerd this as a starter, with Dum Ka chicken to follow. It was so easy to make, cooked in less than an hour. I used chicken stock in place of water, just for the extra goodness. Friends found the flavour to be goodwith a little sweetness. I served it with buttered toast. I also made a proper tarka to spice it up a little. All in all a nice soup.

      Was intrigued with the use of apricot in this soup, but did change things just a bit ~ Since there were just 2 of us, I used the cumin/pomegranate swirl for just the 1st two bowls, leaving it out for the last two, & the 2 of us really preferred it without! Even so, the soup has a GREAT TASTE, & is something I wouldn't mind making again! [Tagged, made & reviewed for the Let's Get Souped Up Tag Game]
