My whole family loved this soup! I didn't have any curry so I faked it using fennel, cinnamon, garlic, and turmeric but it still turned out delicious. To add more flavor, we actually used leftover chicken quarters that we had grilled. It added a nice smokey flavor. Even the picky 3 year old asked for seconds!

I just thought this ended up very bland. I made it omitting the chicken, and using the specified roasted cauliflower recipe, I sauteed half the onion and added it closer to the end but that was the only change. In the end I threw in 2 cups of peas, a heap of salt and pepper, a little poultry seasoning, and onion powder. It was all right, but not a make again for us.

I loved this soup, although I always make changes...I added a little frozen spinache...skipped the rice and believe it or not I added grated mango...just a bit! I loved it!

I can not tell you how many kudos I received on this recipe. I was asked numerous times for it. I made this a couple weeks ago, and I'm going to make it again this coming weekend. Thank you for the tasty soup recipe.
