This soup has a mild curry taste enhanced with orange and a hint of sweetness from the maple syrup. Walnuts add a bit of crunch.

Sambals are zesty, spicy, chili-based condiments found in South African cuisine. Sambals were originally created in Indonesia and Malaysia, and brought to South Africa where they became a part of the Cape Malay cuisine. This Cucumber Sambal pairs cucumber coolness with jalapeno heat for a perfect balance.
