Potato soup is a classic beloved for its simplicity and satisfying flavours.  Do not be surprised that this rich and nourishing soup needs only two ingredients to make: Tender potatoes and onions. And how easy is that!

If you are on the path of losing weight, this is the ideal soup to have once a week which will keep you full for a longer time.  Also, you do not need any accompaniment such as bread, breadsticks, croutons etc to go with it.

There is no need to list down the ingredients and their quantities here as there is no rigid way to make this soup. Just go through the simple way of making it as mentioned below and set to work;

You will need:

  • Tender potatoes 
  • Onions
  • Salt and pepper powder
  • Water

Let's make it:

  • Boil the potatoes until tender - I take about 200g of small potatoes. You can adjust this quantity according to the number of servings you need.  Peel the skin off and keep aside
  • Chop a large onion or two medium onions and saute in a little olive oil. Any cooking oil would do
  • Now drop the potatoes into the pan
  • Give a good stir for a few minutes until potatoes are well coated with the juices of the onion
  • Pour hot water until the potatoes are covered
  • Cover and simmer for 15mins
  • Now tip the whole lot into a blender and whiz until smooth
  • Pour back into the pot.  Add more hot water
  • Season with salt and pepper
  • Simmer for another 15/20mins and finally toss some thinly chopped spring onions
  • Done!

Super easy to make and they all will vanish in a jiffy. Ingredients needed; Ingredients        Amounts Egg whites 3 Icing Sugar 120g Plain fl. 120g Butter (melted) 120g Salt- pinches 3 Vanilla Let’s make; Set the Oven to 160 C Cream the batter Clean wipe a wide bowl perfectly dry to beat the egg whites Pour the egg whites and beat until frothy.  This will take  2- 3 mins In a separate bowl beat butter and icing sugar until creamy Now add the butter and sugar cream to the egg whites Add Plain flour Add salt and vanilla Give a good stir and bring it all together using a wooden spoon or a spatula Pipe onto the tray   and stick it in the oven Pour the batter into a piping bag Pipe disc shapes

Buttercream Icing And Chocolate Icing For Cakes

Vanilla buttercream Icing Whip up this creamy butter icing in less than 2 mins for frosting your cake and you will not believe that your ultimate chocolate cake dream is right in front of you! My personal opinion is that you should never use butter for this recipe despite it being named ‘Butter Icing’. Butter leaves a lumpy heap in cold weather and melts soon in hot weather. Also, it is very dense and sticky too. Good quality spread or margarine is the best choice to make butter icing which will never let you down in taste as well as in texture. It will come out light, creamy, and satin silk, making it a joy to frost your cake! Ingredients  Amounts Icing sugar  300 g Margarine/Butter   125 g Fresh milk 3 tbsp Lemon juice 1 tsp Vanilla essence 1 tsp Let’s whip it: Swift icing sugar to get rid of hard bits Beat the icing sugar and margarine together (margarine should be under room temperature before use) Add milk, vanilla, and lemon Beat at high speed until the consistency is creamy You
