Turn up the heat with these spicy soups. They’re loaded with chilli, green and red, and tempered with the fragrance of ginger, galangal cumin or turmeric. Slurp away at laksas by Christine Manfield and Tony Tan’s, or make pack a spicy punch with David Thompson’s recipe for hot and sour soup with red snapper. Put some fire in your belly with a Mexican sopa de fideos, or for that tingly, mouth-numbing sensation that only Sichuan pepper can give, simmer up the Sichuan-style soup with pork and soft tofu.
