Who Doesn't Love a warm bowl of soup?
Don't you? We are in Mid-November. I just love the weather this time. It is neither hot nor cold. Perfect weather for picnics and park visits. In my part of the world, once the weather cools down, you could smell barbeque all through the weekend. Folks here will be busy buying BBQ stuff and off they go to public parks for a warm cozy weekend with friends and family.
With season change, comes the usual cold and cough. Especially if you have kids, they will let you know the change of season even before the weatherman.
I love soups, surprisingly my kids too love them. Soups are perfect meal on a wintery evening. A warm bowl of soup with a crusty, cheesy bread, ahh perfectly perfect meal. I love this hearty Barley vegetable soup, a filling soup with vegetables and soft cooked barley. If you prefer clear soups, then you would love this simple or this Osaman/Clear Lentil Soup
What do you need to make this Creamy Soup?
- Vegetables, i have used potato, carrot and celery for this potato carrot soup. Potatoes give the needed creaminess and carrots add to the vibrant color of the soup. Not to forget the loads of nutrition.
- Apart from the vegetables i have added onions and garlic too. They add to the sweetness and the punchy flavor to the soup.
- Liquid, I have made this soup with plain water, vegetable stock and milk. Using vegetable stock adds loads of flavor to the soup. In case you don't have stock handy, use a mix of milk and water and adjust the seasonings for a punchy flavor.
- Herbs, I love to keep my soups simple. I have used pav bhaji masala here apart from garlic and fresh black pepper powder.
