Mulligatawny Soup is a delicious Indian soup that my sister made for me. We made it again tonight with a few minor adjustments and it turned out so good!!! Curry, apples, golden raisins… this is definitely my new favorite soup. It’s sweet and savory and addicting!
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. butter
- 1/2 c. chopped onion
- 2 large carrots, shredded
- 3 tsp. flour
- 3 tsp. curry powder
- 8 cups (2 large cartons) chicken broth
- 1 apple, peeled and diced
- 2 chicken breasts, cubed very small and cooked
- 3/4 c. white rice
- 3/4 c. golden raisins
- salt and pepper to taste
- two pinches dried thyme
- 1 c. heavy cream (or half and half if you want it a little lighter)
Instructions
- Saute the onion and shredded carrots in the butter in a large pot. Add flour and curry and cook five more minutes. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce to a simmer for about 30 minutes. While simmering, cook the chicken pieces in a fry pan. Add chicken, apple, rice, raisins, thyme, salt, and pepper to the soup.
- Simmer for 20 more minutes until the rice is done. When there is about 2 minutes left, stir in the cream.

How spicy is this? I am a total wuss when it comes to spiciness.
No spice at all, curry powder isn't hot.
This sounds delicious. I am a big fan of Indian food. About how many servings does it make?
Probably about 6 to 8 servings, depending on how big your bowls are.
Thanks, EB. One more question: what else did you serve with the soup? Any suggestions?
Thanks much!
We just did rolls and a side salad. Caesar salad and breadsticks would be good too.
We made this soup last week and it was delicious. Definitely adding this to the list of favorites. I didn't make any changes. Although I wonder if there is a way to make it a little more healthy?
What kind of apple did you use?
I used a granny smith, a tart apple is best.
This is my new favorite soup! I love it. I hate to share it with my family!
So this sounds great, but raisins kind of turn my stomach. Would there be something else to use in place of the raisins, or do they not give it much of a gummy raisin taste?
Thanks
I have made it without raisins and it still tastes great!
