This vegan mulligatawny pays homage to the soup’s Tamil origins. During the Raj, milagu thanni (“pepper water”) was popularized in different forms, often incorporating chicken and other meats. Red lentils and coconut milk give this version its structure, with extra satisfaction from chunky veggies.
