Jain manchow soup is a vegetarian variation of the popular Indo-Chinese Manchow Soup, adapted to meet Jain dietary restrictions, which avoid root vegetables and certain ingredients.
Jain manchow soup typically features a rich, flavorful broth made with a blend of spices and seasonings, alongside a variety of finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, cabbage, and spring onions.
The broth is usually thickened with cornstarch to achieve a desirable consistency, and It s seasoned with soy sauce, vinegar, and other spices to impart a savory umami flavor.
Garnished with crispy fried noodles and fresh herbs, Jain manchow soup is often enjoyed as an appetizer or a light meal, providing a delightful combination of tastes and textures while adhering to Jain cooking principles.
Pro tips for Jain manchow soup. 1. Keep stirring the soup while adding the cornflour mixture. Stirring helps to distribute the cornflour mixture evenly throughout the soup, preventing clumps from forming. 2. Add 1/4 tsp dried ginger (soonth) powder. Ginger adds a warm, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor in the soup. Wet form of ginger contains lots of living microorganism, hence Jains dry them naturally and then use dry ginger powder. Ginger is a common ingredient in Chinese cuisine, adding an authentic touch to Manchow Soup.
