Veg Soup for the Soul
This is one of my favourite soups. Simple and Easy to make…Simply delicious.
No specific measurements, just add your favourite veggies
I have used :
Green Beans (handful) ends trimmed,
1 Beetroot peeled
1 Small cabbage
2 Small onions
2 Small Tomatoes
8-10 Stalks+leaves Spinach
1/2 Small fresh Bottlegourd peeled
(You may add Carrot, Cauliflower etc)
Chop the veggies roughly. Steam/Pressure cook till the veggies are just cooked.( Don’t overcook)
Run for a few minutes in the blender till smooth. Strain or don’t strain through a sieve(I haven’t).
Add 1tsp butter to a pan. Add some part of the pulp to it.(Refrigerate the leftover pulp to be used later)
Add sufficient water to make a soupy consistency(to your liking). Add salt, little sugar and freshly ground black pepper powder. Bring it to a boil. Serve piping hot.
