Raddish mango carrot soup

About:

In this creamy soup recipe, radishes, mango, carrot are cooked and pureed with the exotic flavour of garlic and curry leaves.  The combination is fictitious and works well without adding any cream or grease.

The Mango variety used added a blended taste of tangy (Tamrind) and Jaggery (Sweet).

It’s a comforting, thick flavourful packed soup and perfect fusion is fresh bread.

Health Benefits:

Radish is extremely low in calories, but with potential anti-cancer benefits on account of their being a cruciferous vegetable (the same family as cabbages and Brussels sprouts).
