With only a few ingredients, and 10 minutes prep, you can have dinner waiting when you get home from work. Although I used coconut milk, I chose the low-fat version. And, the amount per serving is so minimal, it doesn't matter.
In order to get the subtle heat to soup, I used a Fresno chili pepper. Fresno peppers are mildly spicy, but sometimes difficult to find. Fresno chilis are about the size of a jalapeño, but red in color and a bit thinner.
Although you can chop your veggies, I have a Vegetable Chopper that minimizes prep time. It has two different cutting sizes. I use it all the time. For the shallots, onions, and pepper, I used the smaller diced option. For the larger cuts, I cut the potatoes. Prep time took 10 minutes and done.
So, if you are looking for a quick and easy soup, that cooks while you are at work or school this is the soup for you.
