Spicy! But very good. Being that we're vegan, I changed this a little by not adding cream. I didn't miss it one bit. - 31 May 2013
Altered ingredient amounts. I missed out the sugar and the tinned tomatos but otherwise this was a fab receipe!! Such a full flavour - 14 Nov 2009 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
A yummy soup indeed! I must note, however, to make this truly suited for a vegetarian diet, I omitted the brown sauce and worcestershire sauce. (Brown sauce is traditionally beef-based and worcestershire contains anchovies.) I compensated with a little extra garlic and cilantro. - 08 Nov 2005 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
