This one is so quick and easy to make. It’s now a family favourite!
I made this soup for the first time when I was in one of my experimenting moods. I looked around the house and saw a few things lying around that looked good and in they went into the soup.
All of the ingredients are easily sourced and no special spices are required. It is so good topped with the spicy lime and chilli yoghurt.
You can literally make this soup in under 20 minutes. It’s the perfect after work dinner that is both filling and delicious.

Frying the leeks, onion, garlic and pears in a little butter.

Add the spices, followed by the chickpeas and chopped tomatoes.

In with the thick coconut milk and chicken stock.

Blend until smooth.

Add the chicken raw. It will cook quickly in the hot soup.

Top with the chilli and yogurt sauce and dig in.
OUT NOW!
