The secret to this soup’s rich flavor lies in the roasting of the peppers, which caramelizes their natural sugars, enhancing their sweetness. Paired with creamy coconut milk, this soup becomes a luscious delight that’s both satisfying and healthy.
For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a dash of smoked paprika or cumin to the soup while it cooks. If you want a spicier kick, a pinch of red pepper flakes can do wonders!
