Easy Mulligatawny Soup

Easy Mulligatawny Soup is a spiced chicken and rice soup featuring sautéed vegetables and curry powder to give a warm, aromatic base. The addition of apples brings a subtle sweetness balancing the savory chicken broth. It has a creamy texture after finishing with heavy cream and is thickened with flour. The soup is hearty with tender chicken pieces and soft rice, perfect for a satisfying lunch or dinner.

Description

Easy Mulligatawny Soup starts by cooking butter, onions, celery, and carrots, then thickening the mixture with flour and seasoning it with curry powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Chicken broth is added gradually before simmering for 30 minutes. Apple pieces, chicken chunks, and rice are added for further cooking until the rice is tender. The cream is stirred in last to enrich the soup’s consistency and flavor.

The soup combines savory spices with mild sweetness from the apples, while the tender chicken and rice provide body. The texture is creamy and smooth with soft vegetable bits throughout. The method produces a balanced dish with layered flavors.

This soup can be served as a standalone meal and reheats well. It’s good for cooler days when a warming, substantial soup is desired.

Cooking times can be monitored using kitchen timers to ensure proper doneness of rice and chicken. Adjust seasoning as preferred before serving.
