Ingredients

Method

For the curd-potato soup

Heat the oil in a pan, add the chopped onion, carom and paprika to the pan and fry for a few minutes.
Add the potatoes and fry for a few more minutes.
Add 1 1/2 cups of water and salt and summer till the potatoes are cooked.
Cool the potato mixture and puree in a blender with the curds and milk till smooth. Keep aside.

For the broccoli soup

Heat the butter in a pan, add the onion and fry for a few minutes.
Add the broccoli and stir for 4 to 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the broccoli and continue stirring for another 2 minutes.
Add 2 cups of water, stirring continuously.
Simmer till the broccoli is tender and add salt and pepper.
Cool slightly and puree in a blender till smooth.
Keep aside.

How to proceed

Reheat both the soups separately.
Cut piece of foil or butter paper of a length equal to the diameter of the serving soup bowl and place it in the centre of a serving soup bowl.
Carefully spoon both the soups on opposite sides of the foil.
Gently remove the piece of foil so that both the soups have a line of differentiation.
Repeat with three other bowls.

Tips

If the curds are sour, add 1/4 cup milk to the curd and potato soup.
Both the soups should be thick so that they do not mix easily before they are served.
