Directions
Vitamin C rich soup, Immunity booster, Cold-n-Flu remedy, Post delivery recovery and what not?…
This soup is a combination of Lemon coriander Korean style soup with exotic vegetable from western countries. we can make it with pre-available vegetable stock or you can just prepare it right away.
All you need is some fresh exotic vegetables and lots of pepper. this is very good remedy when you are looking forward to boost immunity or while you are recovering from any ailment. the taste is just brilliant and you will never feel enough or bored of having it. this can be had by kids from the age of 2 and adults of any age.
Firstly we need to finely chop all of these vegetable as follows. Enoki mushrooms, Baby corn, Zuccini, Red & yellow bell pepper, cabbage, spring onions and its leaves, little bit of broccoli, garlic and ginger, green chilli. in a hot pot , add some oil followed by finely chopped ginger, garlic, spring onions.
NOTE that you don’t burn or turn any of the ingredient to golden brown. because this will affect the texture of our soup at last. just when the garlic , ginger and onion has started to sweat , you can add in all the vegetables. add salt, Turmeric powder, lot of pepper powder and green chilli. pour the water and give a good stir. put the stove on simmer, cover and cook the vegetables until the veggies look soft but not mushy.
Few important steps to remember:
Add spring onion leaves, coriander leaves and corn starch water , bring it to one rolling boil and turn off the gas immediately. else the greens will start turning darker. add lemon right before you are about to turn off the gas. if you add lemon earlier you wont find the lemony aroma and flavour. and if you also turn off the gas before your starch water has got cooked well then you will taste the raw smell of corn starch in your mouth. it helps in thickening the soup’s consistency.
This soup is to be served hot right after you turn of the gas. else the vegetables will start leaving water. now because we have added corn starch water this consistency will get diluted if the soup is served very late.
That’s all it is! very simple as it sounds.
Enjoy and have a great day!
