cookbook_challengeI'm continuing in my quest to try more of Nigella Lawson's recipes. This time I used one I found on her site, Spinach and Coconut Soup.
Changes: I used red curry paste instead of green and started out with one tablespoon, but ended up adding about half a tablespoon more when tasting the finished soup. Since I didn't have powdered vegetable stock I started out with half a cube, but as with the curry paste I added the rest of it after tasting. Also added a splash of fish sauce and if I'd had it at home I would have a added some lime juice too. (Didn't add any chilli though.) It tasted better after reheating so I would recommend making it at least an hour in advance.
Verdict: I liked it quite a lot. And since it was quick and easy to make, with ingredients I already had at home, I'm definitely making it again.
