A veg manchow soup recipe and some other common soups like hot and sour soup and tomato soup are some of the main soups served in many Indo-Chinese restaurants. Unlike, other recipes, I keep the consistency of this homemade manchow soup bit thin as per my preference.

Indo-Chinese soups are generally topped with fried crispy noodles. You can either make them at home or use a store brought fried noodles. This gives a crunchy and really nice taste to your soup recipes. Each type of soup will taste different for each topping. Fried crispy noodles go well with indo-chinese soups only. If you add them into a bowl of tomato soup or vegetable soup, it won’t taste good. Instead, you should use breadsticks for smooth and creamy soups.

In this veg manchow soup recipe, I have only used some veggies like cabbage, french beans, and carrots. But, you can use any veggies of your own choice. You can also use chicken or meat pieces in your manchow soup. This soup is best enjoyed as a starter dish, but sometimes if you feel like having a light lunch or dinner, then you can definitely go for this recipe.
