MULLIGATAWNY



Mulligatawny image

A sweet and spicy, British-born soup that features a heavy Indian influence with ingredients like coconut milk, lentils, and curries. There are about a million varieties, but I prefer the smoother, soupier versions than the more rustic, chunkier stews. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro and drizzle with heavy cream.

Number Of Ingredients 27

3 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons salt, divided
3 tablespoons coconut oil
4 medium carrots, diced
1 medium Granny Smith apple - peeled, cored, and sliced
1 medium onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
4 cups chicken stock, or more as needed
1 ½ cups coconut milk
½ cup dry red lentils
1 tablespoon red curry powder
1 tablespoon hot (Madras) curry powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon hot English mustard
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 bay leaf
4 tablespoons tomato paste
4 cups cooked rice

Steps:

  • Rub chicken breasts with chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt. Place in a baking dish and let rest for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and coarsely shred with 2 forks; set aside.
  • Pour coconut oil into a large pot and heat over medium heat. Add carrots, apple, onion, and celery. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, then add in garlic and ginger. Cook 1 minute more.
  • Pour in 4 cups chicken stock, coconut milk, lentils, both curry powders, cumin, thyme, mustard, cinnamon, oregano, coriander, turmeric, nutmeg, cayenne, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 30 minutes.
  • Fish out and discard the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to blend into a smooth sauce. Add tomato paste and chicken; cook for another 20 minutes. If it appears too thick, add a little more stock, but the soup is pretty thick. Season with remaining 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Spoon cooked rice into bowls and ladle soup over top to serve.

MULLIGATAWNY SOUP



Mulligatawny Soup image

This soup is a British-Indian cuisine hybrid, the result of colonizers' encounters with rasam - a spiced, soupy dish often enriched with lentils, sometimes served over rice - from Tamil Nadu, a region in southern India. "Milagu tannir," which means pepper water, was how Tamil people described some versions of rasam; it morphed into mulligatawny when the British made it thick, chunky and meaty. In the cookbook "Classic Indian Cooking," the author Julie Sahni wrote that she fell in love with mulligatawny when she first encountered it in Germany. "The present version bears no resemblance whatever to the traditional rasam," she said, adding, "Because of its unorthodox origin, Indian cooks have had a field day exercising their creative genius with it." This version is thickened with a roux, masoor dal and coconut milk, and bolstered with chicken thighs and tart apple. Curry powder is not a traditional Indian ingredient, but it reflects the dish's British influence.

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 red or yellow onion, minced
Salt
8 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
2 tablespoons minced ginger (from about 2 inches of peeled ginger root)
2 teaspoons black or brown mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
2 carrots, peeled and sliced
2 celery stalks, sliced
1 large apple, preferably Granny Smith, peeled, cored and chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized chunks
1 cup masoor dal (split red lentils)
6 cups chicken broth or stock
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
Juice of 1 lime (about 1½ tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Warm the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and shrunken, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring, until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes. Add the mustard seeds, turmeric, curry powder, cayenne and cumin seeds, and cook, stirring constantly, until the mustard seeds pop and sizzle, about 90 seconds. Add the carrot, celery and apple, and cook, stirring, until just starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, then the flour, and cook, stirring well, to uniformly coat all the ingredients, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the chicken, masoor dal and chicken broth. Season lightly with salt. Bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the pot. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer.
  • Cover the pot and cook for 10 minutes, then uncover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes more, until the chicken and carrots are tender, the soup is creamy, and the flavors have blended.
  • Stir in the coconut milk and squeeze in the lime juice. Serve in bowls topped with a dusting of cayenne, if desired.

Tips:

  • To make your stew even more flavorful, use a combination of chicken and vegetable broth.
  • If you don't have any curry powder, you can substitute a blend of cumin, coriander, and turmeric.
  • Add a bit of chopped fresh cilantro or parsley to your stew just before serving for a pop of color and flavor.
  • Serve your mulligatawny stew over rice, quinoa, or your favorite grain.
  • For a vegetarian version of this stew, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth.

Conclusion:

Mulligatawny stew is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The combination of spices, vegetables, and chicken makes this stew a flavorful and satisfying meal. Whether you serve it over rice, quinoa, or your favorite grain, this stew is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
