I found this delicious low fat soup on a weight watcher's forum years ago, it has become a favourite. We can now buy skim evaporated coconut milk, in Australia, so the coconut essence isn't necessary if you are able to find this. I don't usually add the star anise because I am not fond of the flavour of aniseed although it was in the original recipe.
