Mulligatawny Soup

A British / New England curry based soup that is no more than an homage to Indian flavoring. The term Mulligatawny roughly translates to "pepper water."

Why it works: When camping, you want something easy to make , no clean up, warm and full of everything you need. Hence pre-made soup.
