Origin Mulligatawny Soup

Mulligatawny comes from the Tamil words “milagu“ (pepper) and “tanni” (water), meaning “pepper water.” Originally a spicy South Indian broth, it was adapted by the British during colonial times into the heartier soup known today.

What I Love About This Recipe

It’s like a cozy hug in a bowl — warm, gently spiced, slightly creamy, and full of nourishing ingredients. It’s also easily adaptable for vegetarians!

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter or oil

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 carrot, diced

  • 1 apple, peeled and chopped

  • 1 tbsp curry powder

  • ½ tsp ground cumin

  • ¼ tsp cinnamon (optional)

  • ½ cup red lentils or cooked rice

  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth

  • 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken (optional)

  • ½ cup coconut milk or heavy cream

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Lemon juice, to finish

  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Directions

  • In a large pot, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Sauté onions, garlic, carrots, and apple for 5–6 minutes until soft.
  • Stir in curry powder, cumin, and cinnamon. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add lentils and broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20–25 minutes, until lentils are soft.
  • Use an immersion blender to partially puree the soup, or leave it chunky — your choice!
  • Stir in coconut milk or cream, and cooked chicken if using. Simmer another 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use rice instead of lentils for a grainier texture.
  • Swap chicken with chickpeas for a hearty vegetarian version.
  • A pinch of garam masala adds extra warmth near the end of cooking.
