I genuinely loved this recipe it was simple but delicious. The spices and coconut rice were the stars of the dish. I definitely think the coconut rice is needed. The soup was good without it, but personally I felt there was a difference. I followed the recipe correctly except I used fresh tomatoes instead of canned. I had some that needed to be used and while I'm sure you could argue it changed the dish, well I loved it anyways. Portions seems about right on the soup but I would add another cup of coconut rice.
