Inspired by Caribbean callaloo, this tropical, coconut-milk-spiked soup can be mildly or wildly spicy, according to your taste. If you like it hot, add some or all of the jalapeño seeds or a splash of Tabasco sauce.
What a great way to use fresh kale from the garden! I used no-chicken broth for a vegetarian soup and added more garlic. We mixed cooked brown rice in with everything - fabulous!
Wonderful soup. I did not have a jalapeno so added a bit of cayenne pepper. Also added 1 can of black beans as I always think sweet potatoes and black beans go together well especially in soup. Had my husband try a sampling, one without coconut milk, one with. He liked the one with!!! So do I. Also, when I dished mine up I added a little bit of red curry paste. Nice addition. Having for dinner tonight with homemade sourdough breadsticks that a good friend happened to bring by today. Will be making this often. ***** all the way.
Delicious! My husband had his doubts once I poured in the coconut milk (I used light, by the way and it was great) but we absolutely love this recipe. It's unusually but delicious, filling, warming, and very healthy.
I thought this recipe was tasty and simple! I made a few changes though, like adding cayenne pepper instead of chopping jalapenos, and adding about a tablespoon of cumin powder. Also we squeezed a little fresh lime in our bowls at the end. My husband loved this dish and we will make it again!
