TOMATO - BEETROOT SOUP (FOR RICE)

My mom is a master in this.....

Really Finger licking.....

You can do this soup with all these 3 vegs... tomato, carrot, beetroot.
combinations or alone...

we generally do this with tomato... but as carrot n beetroot r also gud for health, we just add them :)

So, its up to you to add or avoid.... Even tomato alone will be delicious.... Give it a try.....

This soup is for having with RICE.

Potato fry is a super combination for this......

In childhood, I used to take it in a small cup and used to drink like regular soup.... on a rainy day.... It tastes even more lapplappa.....
