The soup is clearly great. I’m writing to suggest adding about 1/3 Cup of finely grated parmesan to provide an excellent hearty nuttiness to this soup that really completes it. And to save cash, just save your old parmesan rinds in the freezer and use a couple of them dropped in the pot for an hour, once softened grate any good soft cheese back into the pot and you’ll have the same flavor and use up stuff you might otherwise throw away..

I found this recipe on the same copycat site ages ago and have been making it regularly to rave reviews ever since. One note: I do NOT use the 16 cups water. The flavor is rich and complex and it condenses down to a perfect chili-like texture without the water. SUPERB!

Being a fan of Seinfeld, I just had to try the recipe for Kramer's soup of choice. Considering that the only time I had ever heard of this dish was on the Soup Nazi episode, I am so glad I tried it--and loved it. This is an excellent recipe for an unusual soup that is fun to say — Mulligatawny — everyone who has tried it agrees, even though there are a lot op people who are leary when they hear about the curry. It is nowhere near overpowering, just flavorful. It is worth the 4-5 hours it takes to make. I have made it 3 times and have made it our "house" soup. It reduced better at a medium-low setting on my stove.

This soup is outstanding. I've made it many times and it's such a crowd pleaser. I followed the directions the first time and thought it tasted very bland. Then I added 2T Garam Masala and it was great. The last 5 times I made it with the following changes and it is definately soup nazi worthy: 10 cups water, 8 cups chicken broth, 1 cup lentils, 1 t curry powder, 1 T Garam Masala. Then after 4 hours I add 1 t nutmeg, 1 more T Garam Masala and 2 cans of coconut milk. Then cook another 30-60 minutes. This keeps great in fridge for 5 days and tastes even better, so it's great to make in advance for company.

This was excellent, full of flavor. I used 9 cups of water because thats all i could fit in my biggest pot after all the other ingredients were in. Next time id leave out the pistachios, really couldnt taste them. Will save this for special occasions b/c its a lot of work!
