11/23/2011It's funny, I had a very different reaction to this soup than the other reviewers did. I cut the recipe in half and even at that used a full 2 lbs. of carrots. The sweetness was overpowering to me and it didn't have anything to balance it. It seems to me the carrot juice is overkill. It's intensely sweet already without it. If you like that quality in soup, you'll love this. I ended up doing major surgery to the recipe. I added more curry powder (I used Madras), a good pinch of cayenne, some grated ginger, grated lime peel, lime juice and coconut milk. I just tasted as I went along until I got something I liked. Actually, it turned out great after all the additions and my husband and I both loved it. We served it with a dollop of yogurt. So I can't say I liked this recipe very much but I ended up with a great soup!

11/11/2010Even if you don't like carrots, you might like this soup. My husband isn't crazy about carrots, and, as for me, i usually substitute parsley for cilantro. But i decided to give cilantro the benefit of the doubt and try the recipe as written. We both enjoyed the rich, satisfying result. Since i don't have a straight-sided saute pan, i used a 2 1/2-qt. saucepan. Maybe that's why it took 20 minutes, rather than the suggested 6 to 8 minutes for the vegetables to brown. The onions browned much sooner than the carrots. Next time i'll give the carrots a 10-minute head start. When i reheated the leftover soup, i added a generous pinch of turmeric, which made the soup even better.

3/29/2008If you like carrots, you'll like this soup. It's an unusual soup, in that you don't often find carrot soups in restaurants. Creamy consistency, but no cream. The curry flavor is subtle but very interesting in the background. Added bonus - it's really healthful.
