Instructions
- Wash and chop all the vegetables. This ensures even cooking and saves time later.
- Combine the spinach, chopped vegetables, salt, and water in a pressure cooker.
- Cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the cooker reaches 4-5 whistles. Pressure cooking helps the vegetables retain their nutrients and vibrant colors.
- Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before opening the cooker. This prevents steam burns and ensures the soup is safe to handle.
- Carefully blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or a regular blender. For a smoother texture, strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve after blending.
- Gently reheat the soup if needed. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a pinch of black pepper before serving. The fresh cilantro adds a bright, herbaceous note to the finished soup.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- You can choose to strain the soup, or if you don't want to waste anything, blend it until smooth.
- Use leftover soup to make paratha dough: Mix the soup with wheat flour, salt, chili, and onion. The resulting paratha will have a delicious flavor.
Expert Tips
- For a richer flavor, use homemade stock instead of store-bought.
- Adjust the spices to your liking. Add more chili for extra heat, or experiment with other spices like cumin or coriander.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley before serving for added brightness and flavor.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
