This was very good.  I added a little soy sauce after tasting.   It need a little more salt but I elected to use soy sauce.   This soup has great favor.Cool

Tried this and loved it, even my broccoli/ cauli phobe husband loved it! I added half a can of coconut milk and some chili flakes as I only had paprika not cayenne. so yummy for a winters day here in N.Z. Thank you.

This soup turned out so delicious! Amazing flavour!
I was surprised though that the recipe didn't mention to blend the soup. Using a (hand)blender makes a nice thick soup, and the different flavours blend in even better. We put in carrots in stead of cauliflower and a bit more peanut butter. The coconut flakes were a really good finishing touch. Excellent soup and very warming on a cold day! :)

Great soup with endless possibilities!  Lots to work with here.  If someone says this is a bad recipe they're silly..  You can totally fix it to your liking...  I added coconut milk and lime..  Extra spices.. YUMmmmm.

i am making this again for my 5th time. it is absolutely amazing...my additions: double the peanutbutter and all of the spices and add one can of coconut milk, fresh lime juice, and cilantro at the end...This is my favorite recipe from vegweb!!

This sounded good, so doubled the peanut butter (still, the only peanut taste was when biting a peanut chunk), added a can of coconut cream (I didn't have coconut milk), and bottled lime juice (I'm lazy).  The coconut milk and lime juice combo took it from great to amazing.  Also, I substituted chipotle pepper for the cayenne because I wanted a more subtle heat.

Absolutely wonderful. I varied the recipe a bit and added a jalapeno pepper, dry and fresh cilantro, and couscous. This recipe will be going in my recipe box.
