Spinach and Baby Corn Soup ( Soups and Salads Recipe )
by Tarla Dalal
Crunchy baby corn and roughly chopped spinach make a great combination for soup. The clear soup dotted with baby corn discs and green spinach leaves is a treat to the eye as much as it is to taste.
A bit of tabasco sauce endows the soup with just the right amount of spice. It tastes super when served hot with a generous garnish of desiccated coconut.
