"Followed the instructions with the only difference that I only used 1/2 tbsp of old bay seasoning because a few other comments mentioned the taste was too strong. By the end I pretty much added another 1/2 tbsp because the flavour wasn't quite right. Once finished, the vegetables tasted amazing but the soup had too heavy coconut flavour, something my partner and myself were not a fan of. After sitting in the fridge for a day the coconut flavour mellowed out almost completely and it was so delicious! I think the rice and vegetables really soaked up the coconut milk. I'm going to try this again with half and half or the cream sauce next time and see how that goes. Coming from a background of Asian cuisines, I'm really confused why some comments mentioned this soup tasted bland. That's really confusing because there was so much flavour I had to reduce the old bay seasoning. The only thing I can think of is that the stock used was different. Perhaps it was not a very flavourful stock? I used salted chicken stock that had a bunch of herbs and spices in it, including turmeric. Maybe you can try that out next time?"
