Veg Soup with fried Noodles

"Soup for a chilly evening" was the thought when I started out. The Marsian snow terrain right out my kitchen window inspired me to do something more. Add a twist of "fried noodles" on the top of the soup and make it "I want more" kinds of comfort food.

Any veggies you can lay your hands on.
Create a big bowl of chopped veggies


Crushed black pepper - As per taste

Extra protein punch - I added 1 small cup of boiled Quinoa, a wonder grain which releases energy in small packs and is known as a "Golden Grain" by the Mayan civilization.  Google to read more.




Method:


1. Bring to boil all veggies in a big vessel with sufficient water.
2. Add cornstarch mixed in water to thicken the soup.
3. Follow it up with pepper, salt, sugar lime and adjust as per your taste.
