- Comments: I adapted this recipe from Joyce Molyneux's Carved Angel Cookery Book.
- It's an easy and rather astonishing soup - with a hot, sunshinely color and a tropically tantalizing taste.
- It is described as the best recipe of an Estonian woman who had moved all over Europe during World War II.
- Flecked with splashes of heavy cream and touched up with a few scallion slices, it's a pretty soup - with a warm earthy sweetness overlaid with the tart of lemon and the spice of curry.
- Absolutely outstanding as a first course to spicy barbequed chicken or possibly pork.
