Instructions

  • In a pan or pressure cooker, add the butter and add the garlic cloves.
  • If you are not a garlic lover or want to make this on a fasting day, add 1 bay leaf instead of garlic cloves.

Notes

  1. You can use broccoli, cauliflower, pumpkin (white and yellow), and turnip in this soup.
 
2. If you don’t get Indian millet in your place, use quinoa, Oats instead of Millet.
 
3. You can use any variety of millet (kodo millet, proso millet, barnyard millet ) for making this millet vegetable soup.
