This was an ok soup...it had far too much sweetness for our taste (I would cut out the honey and substitute 1 tablespoon of either palm or brown sugar) and not enough bite. We normally love soup with coconut milk but found that this was pretty much on the bland side. Maybe it had something to do with using ready made curry powder. Perhaps you could improve this recipe by posting your own mix of spices rather than curry powder.
