“Just made this fantastic soup again! It's not just for autumn, it's delicious any time of the year. I add in a couple of carrots and some cauliflower (goes great with curry). I also use a can of evaporated milk instead of heavy cream. It makes the soup wonderf” — a cook, 5.0★
“I made this last night and with a couple of slight amendments we really enjoyed it. 1 tsp of curry powder was way too mild for us so I increased it to 3 and as per a few other comments on here I swapped out the heavy cream with 400ml of light coconut milk.” — a cook, 4.0★
