SWEET CORN SOUP WITH VEGETABLES

Me and my family are fan of Chinese cuisine. I often use to prepare Chinese cuisine at home. There are many healthy and delicious soup in Chinese cuisine but sweet corn soup among the quick and easiest soups. I have already shared some Chinese soup recipes in my blog.  The best way to consume sweet corn is to make a soup of it. We drink soup because there are some food items which cannot be consumed raw. Either boiled or fried are the better option to get the nutrients from those particular foods. You can even add many more other veggies and small chicken pieces to make the soup enriching in taste. Here I am sharing the simple recipe where I used veggies for my soup. This super appetizing item has many health benefits apart from increasing the digestive power like any other soups. This soup is mild in taste but you can add soy sauce, vinegar and even few drops of chilli sauce if you wish.
