TWO OF MY FAVORITE CUISINE FLAVORS BLENDED TO PERFECTION
This Soup was created out of me rummaging through my fridge and trying to satisfy that craving for something comforting, spicy, tangy, and warm.
No doubt I love my Indian flavors and combine them with the aromatic and spices of Thai cuisine and it's pure magic.
The two cuisines actually use a lot of the same spices and herbs so it should be no surprise they work so beautifully together.
We are using red curry paste along with curry powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric, and garlic for the base. Can you feel the warmth just by hearing the spice profile?
Not your conventional recipe but I definitely encourage you to give it a try!
