Dev, I tried your valathandu soup.
It was really super.
I put in the pattai and took out within 5 minutes.
The three pieces of valathandu I chopped and added while drinking the soup. I will make this soup when ever I get hold of valathandu. Thanks Dev, for the nice recipe. Kugan98
Banana stem soup:
1 cup banana stem cut into 1/2 circles
1 small tomato
1/2 " gin
1 garlic
1/2 tsp peppercorns
1" pattai
salt
500 ml water
Cook all the above for 1 whistle. fish out the pattai.throw it away.
reserve 5 pieces of thandu-chop it. Grind the rest of solids to a paste. mix with the water & pass thru a sieve.
To the strained liquid add the following:
1 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp green chilly sauce
pepper pwd.
chopped thandu.
Let it boil for 2-3 mins. take off the froth tht forms on top of the soup.
Add in 1 tsp corn flour mixed in water. The soup shouldn't be too thick. it should still be watery after adding the corn flour mix.
Let boil for a min.
Add in chopped spring onions.
Imme take off flame.
Serve hot.
Note:
Next time I might leave out ginger & pattai. Those r not the best spices to go with thandu soup. But they were not bad either. LOL
