Notes
- We have updated this recipe, however we know some people will want the original recipe. The original recipe included only 3 teaspoons of curry powder, 3/4 cup of golden raisins, and heavy cream instead of coconut milk.
- Instead of using flour as a thickener, use arrowroot or potato starch (not cornstarch). However, instead of adding it at the first of the recipe, wait until the soup is done. If you feel you would like it thicker, follow the directions on the package for thickening soups. I would suggest mixing 1 tsp arrowroot with 2 tsp cold water together and adding it to the soup.
- Serve with naan bread and a side salad for a delicious dinner.
