It's not really fair to suggest something so definitive as The Perfect Tomato Salad. When it comes to vegetables, especially, so much of perfect has to do with the vegetable itself. But I had perfect on the brain.
If you're looking for a way to jazz up everyday veggies, try this super-tasty recipe. It's also delicious with green beans, cauliflower, zucchini or yellow squash.
Thai red curry paste provides the spicy base for this soup. Feel free to substitute whatever vegetables you have on hand for the cauliflower and green beans.
