Veg Manchow Soup | Hot soups for kids | Indo chinese

This has to be the most awaited soup at our dinner table. Owing to the developing tastes, the elder kid has now asking for hot spicy soups as early as 5pm once she’s back from school. And we enjoyed the soups we made for the Cooking Carnival this month. This was one soup that was particularly made for her, and she enjoyed it a lot 🙂

As with Indo-Chinese food, this too was modified at home to suit our tastebuds. I am not a fan of readymade Indo Chinese sauces, and would rather use healthy substitutes whenever I make these.

So, while it may not be the authentic way of making Veg Manchow Soup, it was pretty much pleasing to our palate, and I shall be making this often due to popular demand now 🙂 I have another version of this with Cheesy Manchow Soup  that I made ages ago, but the kiddo’s tastes have changed.
