This recipe comes from lovely Katew from the land down under and while it's summer in Australia,here's were freezing. Great soup especially if you need a quick curry fix,like I do sometimes.Kids too young to be able to sample it,so it's perfect when mommy needs a little curry something.Click on the recipe and it will take you to the original.
