This creamy coconut milk and mango soup is the perfect way to cool down on a hot day. The mango adds a touch of sweetness, while the coconut milk gives it a rich and creamy texture. The cilantro and mint add a refreshing flavor, and the turmeric and ginger give it a warm and spicy kick. This soup is also very easy to make, and it can be served hot or cold.
I first had this soup in Thailand, where it is a popular street food. I was immediately hooked on the combination of sweet and spicy flavors, and I knew I had to recreate it at home. After a few tries, I finally perfected my recipe, and I'm excited to share it with you. This soup is the perfect way to cool down on a hot day, and it's also a great way to use up ripe mangoes. It's also a healthy and vegan soup, so it's a great option for those with dietary restrictions.
