During the monsoon season soups are an absolute delight for several reasons. Firstly, they offer a comforting warmth that feels especially soothing when the weather turns chilly and damp. Whether it's a hearty vegetable soup or a creamy chicken broth, each spoonful warms me from the inside out, providing a cosy escape from the rain. Additionally, soups are packed with nutritious ingredients like vegetables, legumes, and lean proteins, which help to boost immunity and keep me feeling healthy despite the seasonal changes.
Take a look at some of our favourite soups to try out this season.

The creamy texture of cauliflower perfectly complements the robust essence of garlic, creating a symphony of taste with every spoonful.

As someone who appreciates hearty, non-vegetarian dishes, I find that a warm bowl of paya soup hits all the right notes. The rich, spicy broth filled with tender pieces of meat is a comforting hug in a bowl. The flavours are bold and warming, perfect for chasing away the chill of a rainy day. It nourishes both the body and soul, with its nutrient-rich ingredients offering a hearty boost of energy and satisfaction.
