Mulligatawny is a curry-flavoured soup of Anglo-Indian origin.[1]
Translated literally from Tamil, "Mulligatawny" means "pepper water"[2] ("Millagu" மிளகு means pepper and "Thanni" தண்ணீர் means water). Despite the name, however, pepper itself is not a vital ingredient. Rice and noodles are commonly served in the soup; the real dish the Anglo-Indians call "pepper water" is actually closer to Tamilian ரசம்-rasam (pronounced Russ-um) than "mulligatawny".
There are many variations on the recipe for mulligatawny.[3] Sometimes, the soup has a turmeric-like yellow colour and is garnished with parsley and chicken meat, or lamb meat, and is more soupy, which takes on its Anglo-Indian adaptation to be a thick, spicy meat soup.
