I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much cilantro.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup didn't turn out as good as I expected. It was a bit too watery.

This soup is a perfect blend of flavors and textures. The coconut milk gives it a creamy richness, while the cilantro and coriander add a refreshing brightness. I also love the addition of peanuts for a bit of crunch.
