Healthy Indian soup recipes
These soup recipes lean on what a South Indian kitchen already has: dal, ragi, black pepper, garlic, tomatoes and fresh vegetables. They are light enough for a weeknight dinner and filling enough to be one.
For something nourishing, start with ragi soup, made with finger millet and ready in 15 minutes. Drumstick dal soup and moong dal soup are gentle and protein-rich. When someone has a cold, most Karnataka homes reach for a peppery chicken soup or a sharp ginger garlic soup.
Tips for better soup
Temper whole spices in a little ghee before adding liquid, blend only part of the soup for body without cream, and season with lemon at the very end. Pair any of these soup recipes with toasted bread or a crunchy nippattu.
