I am sharing today the recipe of a soup I had recently which had a distinctive taste and I think is very nutritious too. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Ingredients
1 cup white beans (chouli)
1 small carrot finely chopped
1 tomato finely chopped
1 boiled potato cut into tiny pieces (optional)
1/2 inch piece of ginger ground
1 tspn butter
1/2 lemon juice
Salt
Pepper to taste
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves (optional)
Procedure
Soak white beans for 3 to 4 hours in water. Pressure cook beans with 4 to 5 cups of water for 10 minutes (reduce flame after first whistle and allow to cook for 10 minutes). Open the cooker when cool. Remove 1/4 of the cooked beans and keep aside in a bowl. Put the remaining beans along with the water in a blender and blend. In a pan heat butter and add ground ginger and blended chouli mix. If too thick, dilute with a little warm water and bring to a boil. Add finely chopped carrot and allow to cook for a minute or two, then add the potato, tomato and beans that you have kept aside in the bowl, salt and pepper and allow to boil for a minute or two. Turn off the flame, add lemon juice and serve hot with garlic toast or bread sticks.
