This fabulous drumstick soup recipe with the strong aroma and flavour of drumstick, is surprisingly easy to make because it bypasses the cumbersome process of peeling the drumstick. In this innovative procedure, the drumstick is sautéed in butter along with the other ingredients, cooked, blended and then strained, so the saijan ki phalli soup benefits from the its strong essence without going through the long peeling process.
Half a cup of milk helps to balance the overwhelming flavour of the veg drumstick soup and to improve its texture too, while a dash of pepper acts as the classic and final stroke in this masterpiece.

I have made the drumstick soup and it is truly delicious! I kept to the original recipe! I think for daily at home it''s lovely as it is! But were I to serve it as part of a meal for guests, some croutons and a relish / pesto of something, slivers of toasted garlic, almonds may add another layer. will experiment as and when I make it and share if it works.....if u have any suggestions, am happy to incorporate! thank you!
