Mulligatawny soup recipe

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have a good (preferably easy) recipe for mulligatawny soup? You know, one that's really creamy and lemony. . . .

Creamy and lemony is not authentic mulligatawny.

No soup for you!


Sorry, I couldn't help it.

Alas, I don't care about authentic. I have Indian cookbooks given to me by Indian friends, and I can use those for authentic.

I understand. It was hard for me to resist even in asking the question.

And I think part of my difficulty is using an immersion blender instead of a Vitamix or regular blender. I don't own the former and am too lazy to use the latter, so I end up with more bits of lentil than I like.

Yeah...I'm not sure how you're going to get super creamy soup without using blender. You'd have to use your immersion blender in batches, which would be even more work than using a regular blender.

I know you're right. Maybe if I let it cool some before blending it. Being a klutz, I end up with splashes of hot soup all over my person when I try to use the regular blender. So I should have asked for a recipe for a creamy, lemony, vaguely Indian lentil soup with cilantro that a klutz can make. But that's an awfully long subject line.

Why would you have to use your immersion blender in batches?

OP: just go on Amazon right this very second and order an immersion blender--which ever one has the highest customer ratings in your price range. They are not expensive and they are invaluable if you like to make soup or homemade mayo or hollandaise.

This is the OP. I do use my immersion blender; it doesn't pulverize in the same way a regular blender or Vitamix does, so I get more lentil bits than I like.

Thanks to the PP who suggested the Emeril recipe.
