Notes | FAQ

- After chopping the onions, wash it in cold water. This will remove the pungent flavor of the onion.
- I used frozen green peas. If using dry peas, you might have to soak it overnight.
- Do not try to blend/grind the mixture when hot. It would splash all around your room.
- Do not blend/grind the soup to a fine paste. Taste will not be good. Use only the pulse option to get a chunky soup.
- Topping with pine nuts is optional. You can use any other nuts you can get your hands on.
- Adjust water quantity based on how thick or thin you like your soup to be.
