A for Apple. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Why am I quoting eloquent about apples today ? Because I am happy I discovered (?) another , uniquely healthy way to consume apples other than as a whole fruit.
Having said that, these are few apple-based recipes on the blog (and most of them are quick bakes .. yum !)
homemade Applesauce ,
Sugarfree Apple Ginger Smoothie (and more!!)
or in a milkshake (well I don’t make milkshakes at all, but apple milkshake is apparently very popular with moms of fussy kids :p)
Apple Soup - a GF, Vegan dish - that was made for #UltaPulta - a theme for @foodiemondaybloghop that I suggested this week. The caveat was to use a traditionally savoury dish in a sweet dish or vice versa. So it came to be - a lip smacking (if I may say so) soup made with apple.

Intrigued ? I certainly was.
This soup is appropriate for young kids, diabetics, and even geriatrics (thank you, Archana for unknowingly prodding me to have a new category now :-)
The inspiration for this soup was from my dear friend and neighbour Rachna. But I modified it a bit based on ingredients on hand. Am so glad to have found a soup I can make year long, for I am sure this is a warmer in the winter months but keeps you equally refreshed during the summer days.

Let’s see how to make this.
This is entirely a video recipe post, so I do hope you would watch the video and leave your valuable comments here and on the channel too .
The quantities indicated in the video are what worked for me. You can modify this to suit your family’s taste. This makes for 4 generous servings.

Oooh, yum! I can imagine the beautiful medley of flavours that this soup would be. :) I'd love to try this out some time.
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the slightly sweet and tangy taste the apple must have imparted to the soup. An innovative recipe which I wouldn't mind trying out at all.
