Guess it’s just the season for soups that keeps me coming back to more of it. And there’s nothing more savory than a sip of a nice vegetarian soup on cold wintery nights. I had this soup at a friend’s house and thought of sharing the recipe here. Trust me you won’t say no to this.

All you need is:

a) 2 cups green peas

b) 1 carrot chopped

c) ½ green pepper fine chopped

d)1 tablespoon ginger fine chopped

e) 2 cloves garlic fine chopped

f) 1 teaspoon cumin seeds g)

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

h) 1 onion chopped

i) 1 cup cilantro leaves

j) 4 cups water 

k) salt and pepper

In a large pan, heat one tablespoon oil. Throw in cumin seeds, ginger, garlic and chopped onions and stir for about 2 minutes. Then add carrots, green pepper and green peas, turmeric powder, salt, pepper and give it a good stir. Add cilantro leaves and 4 cups water. Cook for about 20 minutes. Then remove and carefully puree in a blender. Bring back to the pan and give it a boil. Remove and serve with garlic bread. It's really one of the most satisfying soups I had this season.
