This hearty, satisfying soup is full of robust flavor yet is super-easy to put together. You only need one large stockpot to make it and it can be ready to go in less than an hour. First, the onions, garlic, and ginger are cooked down and softened, then are flavored with curry powder and grated lemon zest. The soup gets lots of its heft from green peppers, carrots, cremini mushrooms, and red potatoes, as well as vegetable broth and unsweetened coconut milk. Garnishing with some fresh cilantro right before serving adds a pop of color and brightness to the finished dish.
