This soup is a bit too thick for my taste. I would add more liquid next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have used too much water.

This soup is a bit spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less green curry paste if you don't like spicy food.
