Apple and Potato Soup
Apple and Potato??? Yup you read it right! I ate (do you eat or drink soup? Well, whatever…) this soup in the ITC Eden Pavilion at Kolkata… and as usual modified it to taste better 
It is incredibly simple to make and tastes otherworldly…
5 medium sized sweet apples, peeled, cored and cut into medium sized chunks
3 small potatoes or 2 and a half medium sized potatoes which are cut into medium sized chunks, don’t peel the skin and remember to wash and scrub them well before using.
We are using a little less than 1/2 the number of potatoes compared to apples.
2 cloves of garlic crushed
Few basil leaves
Olive Oil
A small piece of cheese grated
3 small cinnamon sticks
Salt to taste
In a pressure cooker, heat up a generous amount (3-5 tablespoons) of Olive oil and put in a tablespoon of butter (optional). add the garlic and cook till brown, add the basil leaves, stir for a minute. Add the salt.
Add potatoes and cook for about 3-4 minutes. Then add the apple pieces and cook for another few minutes. Add the cinnamon sticks. Add the cheese. Add water to cover the entire mixture. Pressure cook for 3-4 whistles. Remove from heat and put aside.
Allow the cooker to stand for about 10-15 minutes. Then remove the whistle and carefully open the cooker. Fish out the cinnamon sticks. and whirrr the whole mixture to a smooth consistency.
Garnish with a sprig of Parsley and serve piping hot. It’s absolutely delicious. You don’t need anything at all to go with it!

Dear Bawa,
Today, I lost my cooking virginity to this Soup! It was cooked with a few drops of oil so my husband who is ill with typhoid could get enjoy some fruty-veggy wholesomeness without the bore of tastelessness! He didn’t like it *Fussy Fellow!* but it certainly surprised me and my mum..Yum! My first time in the kitchen was utterly memorable thanks to the recipe. The soup’s all gone and I can’t wait to it the unhealthier version of it. Soon!
