Mighty Mulligatawny

Hello bloggers

I am finally getting up to date with my recipes, hurray!!

Yesterday I made a mighty Mulligatawny. For those who don't know, Mulligatawny is a rich flavoured soup, spiced with curry powder. For me it was much more like a Spanish cocido.

I started by cooking the minced meat and adding chopped red onion, coriander, sliced garlic, chilli peppers, red peppers, carrots and seasoning to it.

The sauces added were curry paste (I bought a medium strength one but I guess it is up to you!), HP sauce and tomato puree, all cooked in a broth, it was supposed to have been meat but I put a vegetable one.

Butternut squash is cooked with the rice, garam masala and thyme. Squash is very tasty and you could eat rice and squash with nothing else, it is so delicious.

I doubled the quantity of meat in the recipe and I thought it was maybe better, it depends if you are a meat eater!

We still have left overs for today. A hearty meal, really good for the coming Autumn, spice, rich and lovely. Not at all difficult to make and not too long, about one hour. It feeds well 4 people.

Here are the pictures:
