I made this soup yesterday morning to take to share with my group. I

halved the recipe (we are a very small group, LOL) but I forgot to

halve the tomatoes, which meant that they were rather overpowering.

To combat that I added extra lemon juice. Despite that it was a

lovely soup and was very well received. The combination of spices

really worked well as did the mint and lemon combo. Next time I shall

try to follow the recipe exactly and I also plan to try out the other

versions too. Thanks Chupa.
