Healthy Yogurt soup

Yogurt soup by Diba

My friend Diba has sent me this healthy recipe. Yogurt is something South Indians use in idli and Gujaratis use in Srikand.

Idli and Dosa are South Indian dishes but very popular in all parts of India as well as in many parts of the world.

Diba's healthy Yogurt soup requires the following ingredients:

ingredients:

- 2 cups plain yogurt

- 1/2 cup flour

- 8 cups water

- 1 cup cooked chickpeas

- 1/2 cup cooked rice

- 2 cups chopped coriander

- salt ,black pepper

- one minced garlic clove

Have you got all the ingredients ready?

Now we can start making healthy Yogurt soup and think of Diba when we relish it.

Mix yogurt and flour well, add water and salt , bring to the boil.

Boil for 10 minutes stirring frequently.

Take the peas and rice, add one cup of water.

Blend coarsely peas, rice and water in a blender.

Add to yogurt soup and boil for 5 more minutes.

Remember to keep stirring :)

Add garlic and coriander. Boil for 5 minutes.

Add pepper and salt.

Well that reminds me...

You can add curry powder that comes with Instant Dosa Mix to this soup. That will add an exotic taste to Diba's healthy Yogurt Soup.
