Healthy Mix Vegetable Soup and another Award.

For Raaga's MBP: Soup and Salad event I am trying Manasi's Mix Vegetable and Coconut Milk Soup. I love this healthy soup. I made little bit changes to original recipe. I did not use beet root and instead of pressure cook all vegetables I chopped them very fine. Here is my version

Ingredients

• Cauliflower Florets: 1 Cup
• Cabbage: 1/2 Cup
• Large Tomato: 1
• Medium Size Carrot: 1
• Green Beans: 10 - 15
• Green Peas: 1/2 Cup
• Chopped Onion: 1/2 Cup
• Coconut Milk: 1 Cup
• Ginger Paste: 1 tsp
• Red Chilli Powder: 2 tsp
• Bay Leaves: 1-2
• Coriander Powder: 2 tsp
• Cloves: 3-4
• Olive Oil: 2 tsp
• Salt and Black Pepper to Taste
• Water as needed

Procedure

• First of all finely chopped all vegetables in food processor and keep aside.


• Heat olive oil in a sauce pan. Then add the garlic paste, cloves, bay leaves and saute the chopped onions until light golden brown.


• Then add chopped vegetables to the pan. Mix all ingredients very well. Cover and cook them for 4-5 minutes, then add all other spices. Then add chopped tomato. Cover pan with lid and let them simmer for 6-7 minutes. Then add half of the coconut milk and cook for another 5 minutes.


• Then remove the pan from flame. Let it cool for a while. Then remove cloves, bay leaves by hand. Then blend all mixture in a blender to fine paste. Add remaining coconut milk while blending. Add water to achieve the desired consistency. Then add salt, pepper of needed.


• Garnish this soup with finely chopped coriander and serve hot.
