• Pour chicken broth and tomatoes into the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add chicken breasts, and cover. Cook over medium heat until chicken is no longer pink in the center but still tender, about 15 minutes.
• Shred the chicken in the pot. Stir in coconut milk and spinach. Remove soup from heat as soon as spinach begins to wilt, about 1 minute. Garnish with cilantro. Place 1/2 cup cooked rice in each serving bowl and ladle soup on top. Place a wedge of lime for squeezing into the soup on the side of each bowl.

MULLIGATAWNY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, cumin, and turmeric and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and turnip if you're using it and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the stock, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Stir in the curry powder and cool the mixture slightly if time allows (it's never a good idea to puree boiling hot mixtures if you can avoid it). Use a food mill, an immersion blender, or an upright blender to puree the stew.
• Reheat the stew in the saucepan, season with salt and pepper, garnish with cilantro, and serve.
• Mulligatawny with Coconut Milk
• Stir 1/2 cup coconut milk, homemade (page 584) or canned, into the soup after seasoning with salt and pepper; heat through and serve.
• Chunky Mulligatawny with Chicken
• Add 1 pound chicken breasts or thighs, skinned, boned, and cut into 1/2 inch cubes, to the saucepan with the vegetables. Do not puree the soup.

AUTUMN'S BEST MULLIGATAWNY ( CHICKEN )

Steps:

• In soup-pot, cook chicken, water, salt and two of the onions, celery and carrots; bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover & simmer for at least a half-hour.
• More finely chop the remaining onion(s), then in a large frying pan, saute onions in oil until transparent. Add chopped apples, continue sauteeing for 4-5 minutes, then add garlic to the pan.
• Quickly sprinkle flour and curry powder over the apple-onion mixture, mix and cook for about 1 minute (maybe a bit more).
• Remove one cup of broth from soup-pot, and pour slowly over the apple-onion mixture, stirring all the while; add another cup of broth if you'd like, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
• Slowly pour roux from frying pan into soup-pot; stir well to blend.
• Simmer for another half-hour.
• SERVING SUGGESTION: Put 1/2 to 1 cup of rice in each bowl OR over egg noodles, spoon stew-soup over rice and garnish with parsley.
• OPTIONAL VARIATIONS: Figure one piece of meat per serving. OR Use 3-4 cups of meat picked from the turkey carcass at Thanksgiving. OR Add giblets to the stock as it cooks for additional flavor. OR Use bite-size chunks of breast meat in place of the whole bird.
• SUBSTITUTION: Replace the water with chicken soup stock or bouillon.
• WARNING: Do NOT mix rice or noodles with the soup when you put away the leftovers -- the soup will turn into a soggy mess of curried pudding. Unless you LIKE that sort of thing -- .
