jayasri said...

I made broccoli soups, rather I made lot of soups during winter!!, never posted any of them!!, I did not add coconut, I try to avoid coconut as much as possible, too much cholesterol, I will enjoy looking at your soup!!, lovely click, and brocolli is my favourite.

cookcurrynook said...

What a novel idea to add coconut milk. You should tell your friend Jayasri (the one who has left a comment above) that eating coconut once in a while does no harm to the body. Its only when you deprive it of essentials that the nutrition factor is bad!
