We made the Indonesian Cabbage and Sweet Potato Soup for dinner this evening. I followed the recipe almost exactly, a little extra cabbage and a little extra soy sauce b/c there was just a tiny bit left in the bottle. The seasoning of the recipe was perfect, just enough heat. I garnished it with bean sprouts, green onions and a little bit of mint. It was tasty, nothing earth shattering, but a good satisfying dinner. I did add a squeeze of lime on top, it seemed to be crying out for it. Cut through the heaviness of the peanut butter and added a bit of sour to the salty and sweet.

The soup could handle a bit more cabbage, it cooked down a lot. The tomatoes didn't seem to add much and practically disappeared with cooking.
