Dedication
To every kind person who has ever taken the time to make me soup;
to the school kitchens who taught me just how thick a soup can get;
to the many chickens and vegetables that have sacrificed
their lives so that I could recover from flagging health;
to the primordial soup from which God made us; to whoever
invented double-boilers; and mostly, to all the soups Ive loved before.
Contents
Preface
Soupsliquid nourishment for body and soulare among the first things we
ever eat, and often the last.
You can make soup out of anything, from a brace of birds to a sheaf of herbs, and even a stone, if you believe the childrens tale. Its little wonder that the worldwide family of soups includes in its myriad bowls countless qualities and characters. From luxurious lobster bisque to homespun lentil potage, mythically curative chicken soup to sinus-clearing tom yam , theres a soup somewhere to suit everyones taste. If you already love soup, then I do not need to convince you. If you feel ambivalent towards its charms, may the recipes that follow stir you up even as you spoon them up

Small Soups
Cream of Onion Soup with Toasted Walnuts
and Walnut Oil
Small-sized soups can play many different roles: as a starter, they
can whet the appetite and set the tone for the whole meal, effect
a smooth transition between two courses when served as an
interim, charm and surprise diners in the form of a canap the
fun is up to you!
Roasted Tomato Rasam with Curry Leaf Foam
Rasams are appetite-stimulating Indian broths that are typically piquant and highly seasoned; tomato
and lemon are common rasam flavours. Here, the tomatoes are roasted, and an aromatic milk foam
partners the spicy broth.

Add tamarind pulp to water and knead until it dissolves, then
strain. Set aside.
Line a small baking tray with aluminium foil. Place tomatoes,
shallots and garlic on top and drizzle with half the olive oil.
Roast on the top shelf in a preheated oven at 190C (370F)
for 1525 minutes, until vegetables are soft and browned in
parts. Remove baking tray from oven.
Heat remaining oil in a pot over medium heat. When oil is very
hot, add mustard seeds, turmeric, pepper and cumin. Fry,
stirring constantly, for 3045 seconds or until mustard seeds
pop. Add roasted vegetables and tamarind liquid. Bring to the
boil and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring often so that vegetables
break up.
Taste rasam and season to taste with sugar, salt and lemon
juice, if needed: it should be piquant and savoury. Strain rasam
through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids to extract all the
liquid. Alternatively, blend (process) rasam until smooth or even
leave it chunky. Reheat strained or blended rasam , if necessary,
and divide among shot glasses. Chunky rasam will require
larger serving ware.
Make curry leaf foam. Warm milk over medium heat until very
hot, then pour into a blender (processor) and add curry leaves.
Blend at high speed until leaves are finely ground and milk is
very foamy. Spoon foam on top of rasam and serve immediately.
