Notes
This soup is delicious. I season 4 chicken thighs with curry seasoning, brown them on both sides. Then put them in the soup when the soup is ready to simmer for 20 mins and then they finish cooking like that. I also use curry powder in place of the turmeric, coriander & cumin. Ive also used a bag of coleslaw (shredded cabbage and carrots) to save time time.
I’m happy you enjoyed my curry cabbage recipe. Thank you for sharing your feedback.
This soup was so delicious! I ended up making it in the Instant Pot and added in some tiny potatoes. Can’t wait to try the left overs on rice.
I don’t always have coconut milk on hand – although I do try to – what would you suggest as a substitute, if any? Thanks. I have made this once already and it was very good! I made it to have for lunch, with a slice of bread on the side. No rice.
Rosanna, you can make it with bouillon cubes, vegetable broth, you can just leave out the coconut milk.
I’ve also used a little bit of coconut extract (1/2 tsp) mixed with nondairy milk (1 cup) as a substitute. It lightens up the recipe for a delicious side as opposed to the main dish. I love this recipe.
Hi! I thought this recipe was delicious! I was just wondering if you knew how much fiber this meal had per serving? I’m currently doing the vegan keto diet and was trying to figure out the net carbs.
I served it with a piece of white fish, and it was sooooo good!
Val, I’m so excited you enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing your feedback.

I love cabbage and curry. Can’t wait to try this. Thank you!
Ahna, that is awesome, I hope you enjoy!
This was very good!
I was confused by coriander until I realized there was no curry
Powder in the recipe. When I looked it up it said that Curry could be substituted. So was that what made the cabbage Curry cabbage? I wasn’t sure so I used both. At any rate it was a nice change from the regular cabbage that I make. I also used broth instead of water. Thank you very much I have recommended it to several friends.
Thank you very much! It was delicious!
Krisztina, I’m so happy you enjoyed it. Thank you.
