Vegetable Soup

Soup is one of our all time favorite starter. Also soup is very good for health. This vegetable soup is healthy and also easy to make.



Ingredients:

Water - 4 tumblers
Mixed vegetables - 1 cup (any finely chopped carrot, beans, peas, cauliflower, mushroon, cabbage)
Onion - 1/2 onion (finely chopped)
Ginger garlic paste - 2 tsp
Spring onions/Green onions - 1/4 cup (chopped)
Cilantro/Corriander leaves - 4 or 5 sprigs (chopped)
Ajinomoto/MSG - 1/2 tsp (optional)
Milk - 1 cup
Corn flour - 1 tbsp
Pepper powder - 1 to 2 tsp
Salt - to taste

Note:
a) You can add any of the above mentioned vegetables. Just add what you have, all mixed up to about 1 cup. I used carrot, cauliflower and mushroom.
b) You can skip adding ajinomoto/MSG, but it gets a really good flavor to your soup.

Method:

1) In a sauce pan, add 4 tumblers of water and let it boil. Then add the finely chopped vegetables, onion, ginger garlic paste and ajinomoto/MSG. Let it boil and half cook the vegetables for about 3 minutes. (Do not overcook the vegetables)



2) When its almost half cooked, add the spring onions, cilantro and the salt.



3) Then mix the corn flour with water and add to it. Also add the milk.



4) Let it cook for about 3 to 5 minutes and finally add the pepper powder.



Hot vegetable soup is now ready to taste. For great taste, serve hot once its ready.
