KAMBU/BHAJRA VEGETABLE SOUP


Pearl millet is known in various names as Kambu, Bhajra and Pearl millet. Pearl millet is rich in fiber, calcium, magnesium and potassium and it is good for health.

Kambu flakes are nothing but kambu poha/aval. Kambu poha can be used to make variety of healthy recipes like upma, aloo poha, soup, puttu and so on. Here I tried kambu vegetable soup. 

Kambu soup is the healthier soup recipe made with Kambu/pear millet flakes gives thickness to the soup. No need to add corn starch or any other ingredient to thicken the soup.
