I make this so that it comes out thicker and goes well over rice. I've been looking for a good curry recipe to adopt for my household and we love this one!

This is wonderful with or without the tomato paste and using Turkey instead of chicken.

I sweat for a week after eating this...then I remembered there was leftovers.

Sigh...Needless to say I will not be making this again.

I thought the flavors were wonderful and it was easy to make. Perfect for a chilly winter day.

I loved this soup! It was very easy to make and really warmed us up on a cold night. My husband suggests that I cut back a tad on the ginger next time.

this was excellent... we used coconut oil and it added to the curry flavor. Used a 6-oz can of tomato paste without a problem. We felt it "needed" something and these reviews mentioning RICE is probably that missing ingredient, so we'll try that next time. We have several vegetarian friends, so I am confident that this, with vegetable broth and garbanzo beans instead of chicken, will be a hit with them.

It was awesome to make this with all the veggies and the apple fresh from our garden!

This soup was great! The apples were a pleasant surprise and contrast when my palate was expecting potato. We added some cooked rice to leftovers the next day and it was great! Will make a double batch next time.

Wow! This was great. I never would have thought to put apple in soup but this tasted great! My only complaint was that it didn't make more! Next time I'll double the recipe

This was delicious! Curry powder is one of my favorite flavors, and this soup wears it well. Great consistency with a little bit of a kick. Will definitely make this again!

I thought this had great flavor! It's thick enough that it could also be nice on a bed of rice. If you decide to double the recipe, I would recommend going easy on the ground ginger because too much can leave a bitter taste in your mouth. I did not have this problem, but I already knew that about ginger. Great, spicey soup perfect for cooler weather!
