Method:

2. In a small pressure cooker, saute all the vegetables in Olive Oil until soft.
3. Add some seasoning of salt and sugar. Stir and pressure cook with some water (1 cup) for about three whistles.
4. Once pressure cooker cools off, finely blend the entire mixture in a mixer or with help of hand blender.
5. Pass the mixture through a sieve if required add bit of water to adjust consistency. We are expecting smooth, creamy consistency.
6. Boil the soup, adjust seasoning.
7. Garnish with some rich coconut milk and fresh basil leaves.
Tips:

1. Chilli flakes also can be added if your kids can handle the heat.
2. Fresh Basil does the trick so try to get it as fresh as possible
3. Coconut Milk can be added while cooking as well if you love the nutty flavour,

Hope you find this quick soup beneficial. It is heavy thus if you kids skip a meal after this don’t worry this will keep the full for good.
