Millet Vegetable soup

Millet Vegetable soup, a healthy vegetable soup recipe using Indian Millet. Millet Vegetable soup recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.

This is a one-pot healthy soup recipe using millet. Soups are very much loved by everyone at home. I wanted to incorporate millet into the everyday meal. Usually, we add corn flour as a thickener in making soups. Here we are adding Indian millet, this not only gives the thickness but also makes it very healthy.

What Millet works well for Soups?

Kodo millet, Little millet, Barnyard millet, foxtail millet, and Proso millet work well for soups. You can use millet flour in the last if you don’t get whole millet. I have tried Ragi flour in a vegetable soup and posted it in the blog too.

Recently I did a cookery Demo in Hongkong, themed millet recipes, to promote the goodness of Indian millet among the local people. The event was organised by Indian Embassy. I will share the recipe for the 2 dishes which I showcased at that event.
