- * Note: If you cannot find canned coconut lowfat milk in a Thai/Indian market or possibly fancy supermarket you can make it. Just pour some boiling water over fresh grated or possibly packaged UNSWEETENED coconut. Let it sit for about 5 min, then blend in a blender or possibly food processor and strain as finely as you can, pressing the solids hard before throwing them out. Add in the coconut lowfat milk at the last possible minute because its distinctive flavor degrades quickly in high heat.
- Saute/fry the celery, carrots, onion, and pepper in the butter at a low heat till the onion is translucent/soft. Pour in the stock, add in the lentils (and chicken, if it's raw), and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 min.
- While the soup is simmering, get the rice cooked (if it isn't already); likewise with the chicken. Then shred the chicken and minced the apples finely. You do not need to skin the apples.
- When the soup is done, puree, solids first, in a blender. Return to pot.
- When ready to serve, bring the soup to a simmer and add in the cocoanut lowfat milk or possibly cream. Take the pot to the table, as well as individual bowls of hot rice (heated in the microwave, if necessary), shredded chicken, finely minced apple, cocoanut lowfat milk (or possibly cream), and chopped cilantro (or possibly parsley).
- To serve, have big individual serving bowls at the ready. Spoon rice into each bowl (flat soup bowls are nice here) - then pile on a big spoonful of chicken and a spoonful of apple. Ladle the soup on top, then drip cocoanut lowfat milk/cream into the center and swirl - and sprinkling with fresh cilantro and parsley.
- Serve this one warm - and with a lot of showmanship - to 4 to 6 people.
- Comments: Peggy Gurley and her Mom bullied me into coming up with a good Mulligatawny recipe, and now I'm glad they did. Mulligatawny - literally, "Pepper Water" - is a substantial and deliciously complex meal in itself. At the same time it poses its own mystery since soup is not a significant part of traditional Indian cuisine. Rumor has it which the English adapted a traditional spiced pea and lentil Indian peasant dish to suit their own love of soup...and called it Indian.
