MULLIGATAWNY SOUP ( CHICKEN )



Mulligatawny Soup ( Chicken ) image

I am not sure if I should list this under Indian, or English foods since it was a creation by English folks who found themselves in India. I found this in one of my cookbooks. Since I make my meal plans off of RecipeZaar exclusively I have not been using the cookbook. I figured I would put a few here so I can use them. The cookbook is "Red Hot" the ingredients list and directions have been slightly altered. This book was written in the UK I changed things a little to be clearer to me and other US readers. If you would like different measurements let me know, the book has things in metric and imperial measures also.

This is a hearty, somewhat spicy soup. We like it a lot and I am writing it down after receiving a copy from my friend. Soup can be frozen before adding coconut milk, lemon juice and coriander.
