To feel safe and warm on a cold wet night, all you really need is soup.     – Laurie Colwin

Let’s talk hot soup! Let’s talk –

Manchow Soup

I hope winter is treating you better.  Though this winter was not really that cold in my part of the world, I’m going “brrrrrr”! My husband and kids have a good laugh at times when they see me wearing at least 3 layers of cloth: D.

Their laughs did not bother me much. I decided I will make a party out of it and wear my best stockings, sweaters, jackets, hats. I decided to love winters, embrace the cold and find beauty in the bleak skies. And even in the shorter days and the darker nights, I simply refuse to let the change of seasons bring down my spirits!

What comes to your mind when you think of cold, chilly nights? Cozy corners, blankets, and soups right? Yes, that’s what I thought! Cold winter nights are meant for having hot steaming bowls of manchow soup.

All you need is a bowl of steaming hot soup to sip on while sitting under your favorite cozy blanket in your most comfortable position and watching your favorite soap opera or may be reading your favorite book while sipping this soup.

Veg Manchow Soup

The easy option for me is of course mixed vegetable soup which is sour and spicy. Simple, hearty, yet light it is healthy and delicious too. And you know what s the best part about this soup? Crunchy fried noodles on the top! This is VEGETABLE MANCHOW SOUP!

I always ask the waiter to give me an extra bowl of those crispy noodles every time we eat out in a Chinese restaurant. I can munch on and finish like 2 full blows of it alone. Do you do that as well? Those crunchy noodles drenching in hot super comforting soup can make you drool even at 3 AM! 😀

With loads of veggies, topped with some fried noodles, it will brighten up a chilly damp day for sure. Serve this as a beginning to an Indo-Chinese meal or make it in a large pot, filled with lots of vegetables to make a soupy meal by itself.
