This is one of those dishes that I did not follow a recipe but simply put in spices and stuff (this is a professional term) that I know my wife and I really like.  The soup turned out to be one of those dishes that the chef, me, thought it was amazing. For those that cook, you know it is the exception, not the rule, when you really go overboard about your creation. The dish combined the curry spice we love with the richness of the coconut milk.
