How to prepare the soup?

1. Pressurise all the vegetables mentioned in the top of this recipe along with the filtered vegetables (during the vegetable stock preparation),  for 3 whistles.

3.Transfer it in to a thick vessel, add pepper and salt.
4. Boil for 3 to 5 minutes

Hey Listen!!
The recipe sounds very lenghty, believe it, it is very easy to prepare. It is not so tedious as it appears.
Normally it is a practice to filter the grinded vegetables(step 2 in "How to prepare soup") and boil only the liquid portion. I do not suggest it, as we will loose the main substamce -the Vegetables.
Hence it comes out as a very healthy soup.
Have a try and i am sure you will like it
