- Transfer this mixture to the boiling stuff and keep stirring just for a minute.
- It becomes thick and creamy. Switch off immediately.
- If boiled longer, it will curdle since milk will start to react with the salt.
In a small pan melt butter in low flame. Add the all purpose flour to it and keep stirring for few seconds. Add a cup of milk and stir. The cream is ready to decorate the soup now.
- If you have store bought fresh cream you can use it.
- Fry the bread squares in ghee or oil and keep ready in advance to garnish.
- I usually grill the bread on both sides in microwave oven, cut and add to the soup.
