Banana Stem Soup- Vazhaithandu Soup- Valai thandu Soup- Valaithandu Soup – plantain stem Soup- Healthy Soup Recipe

I wanted to try some soup which can be one pot meal. I vaguely remember a soup my mum cook made sometime ago. I just added 2 spoons of cooked quinoa so that I can have this as a meal. If you prefer you can use Rice, or any cooked millet in the place of Quinoa. Actually this combo worked well and bowl of this soup kept me full from lunch to dinner. You can totally skip the rice part too
