i could not find the coriander on my shopping trip. cooked with out it is a very mildly spicy bean soup, and it is prety good i did at an extra carrot and two extra pieces of celery. you can prepare the rice and beans ahead of time thats what i did.

This is a lovely recipe! However this didn't turn out to be a soup for me for some reason, but it was a fantastic side dish! My husband loves spicy food so this quickly became a favorite. Anyway like the other reviewer I didn't have all the spices either so I just used 3 tablespoons of curry powder (medium). I also used sesame oil, which I really thinks brings a nice taste to the dish!

This is a delicious Curry I get asked for regularly. My husband and I were Migrant professional Tree Planters, all by hand. He was famous for holding the record, 12,500 trees in one short Winter day down South, more than once. We blew through calories and were Vegetarians.
