I am not a big fan of soups, If you talk about soups the only two recipes that I would recognise is sweet corn chicken soup and the other is this mutton soup that Amma makes. Other than that I am zero when it comes to soups, not that I cannot make them, I just don't enjoy soups or you can say I am not a soup person. Like me, husband also is someone who is not fond of soups. If I ever mention the word soup, he would go soupppppp ahhhhhhh??? :P so I seriously have no motivation to stir soup. Today was one of those days that necessity called for some warm soup, husband was down with flu and after two rasam days I was so looking forward to having something good and I remembered Amma's Mutton soup which she used to give me when I was sick. Usually I love having it along with mashed rice, nice and warm. Its a very comforting food when you are down with a throat pain, cold or runny nose. Another way that I relish this soup is just the liquid served warm before lunch.
Mutton Soup is very common in the southern part of India,this soup is made by cooking mutton bones with flesh along with spices which is very aromatic and fragrant. The spice level is less and can be increased or decreased according to taste and preference. If you are a meat eater then you must give this a try and you will keep making it often. Today I served soup with mashed white rice and beans stir fry. Also saved some more of the soup to be relished later.
