Yummiest & healthiest soup ive had in a long time!!!
priya i made this. it came out very well & really taste is delicious we both liked it….why u’ve added raw rice, is it for the stickyness or to enrich the soup? can we add oats instead of rice…but rice potathala antha pisupisupu & taste is good. but i didn’t get the green color as in ur picture…. i left the veggei.. for 1 whisle. i think b’cose of this reason only that green color vanished.thanks for sharing this……
Hi Viji,
Thanks a lot, as u told i added rice to give stickyness to the soup, i never tried with oats,give a trial n let me know viji, but can replace the raw rice with potatoes, broccoli can cook very easily, no need to put in pressurecooker, neegha sollura reasone than, pressure cook pannura pothu certain veggies will lose their colour..glad that u liked it..
Thanks
