Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Soup
- For a richer flavor, roast the potatoes before adding them to the soup.
- If using fresh fenugreek leaves, add them towards the end of cooking to retain their bright green color and fresh flavor.
- Adjust the amount of chili flakes to your preferred spice level.
- For a thicker soup, simmer uncovered for a few minutes after blending to reduce the liquid.
