Recipe(tried): Indian tomato coconut soup

I didn't know if this is the soup you are looking for? I have tired it once and it's pretty good. (We eat this with Indian roti/bread.) By the way, if the (Asian)recipe calls for "coconut", it is usually from Southeast Asian or Indian or other countries on that subcontinent.
Chinese, Japanese, or Koreans don't use as much because coconut tress only grow in tropical countries...
