Curried Turkey Soup

Curried Turkey Soup was pinched from <a href="http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/curried_turkey_soup/" target="_blank">www.simplyrecipes.com.</a>

"This curried turkey soup made with leftover turkey is fashioned on a classic Anglo-Indian curried soup called “mulligatawny“. It couldn’t be easier to make; you start by cooking someÂonions, carrots, celery, andÂyellow curry powder, add stock, apples, rice, cook for a bit, then stir in the chopped cooked turkey. DrizzleÂa little cream in at the end. So easy! It’s also one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life. My father and my sweetheart, two men who for some weird reason have never learned to appreciateÂthe flavorsÂof Indian cuisine, couldn’t stop eating this soup. It was priceless really, looking at the surprise on their faces as they ate the soup and not only liked it, but loved it! As with any soup that relies on a stock for a base, the quality of your stock will determine the quality of your soup. Because we were working with turkey leftovers, we happened to haveÂturkey stock made from the carcass of the turkey that created those leftovers. You could also use chicken stock. And if you don’t have any homemade stock, a product that we use occasionally with good results is Better Than Bouillon...."
