Tofu and Vegetable Clear Soup

Tofu and Vegetable Clear Soup:



Tofu and Vegetable Clear Soup:

Soups are generally considered low calorie diet. Dietians often recommend soups for reducing weight. But they generally forget that soups are deprived of protein. Vegetable soups are generally rich in minerals (unless cream is added, which adds extra calorie and fat). I came up with the idea of fortifying a regular clear soup with extra calcium and proteins.
I recommend this soup especially  obese who have knee problems and trying to reduce weight.
Tofu is soya protein(paneer) which is rich in calcium and proteins.
Here is the recipe
All you need is:
1tsf of olive oil
Tofu 100gm diced in small cubes
Peas, cabbage, cauliflower,spring  onion, beans : 100 gms
1 tsf corn flour
500ml of vegetable stock
Salt
Oregano, chilli flakes
Garlic powder
1sf vinegar
In a cooker, sauté the vegetables and tofu in olive oil. Add salt, garlic powder,corn flour(dissolved in water), oregano,chilli flakes, vinegar and salt.
Whistle the cooker and wait for two whistles.
