The Desi Vegan

In this post, I have provided a simple and delicious Indian recipe for a creamy spinach soup. Unsweetened almond cream is a fantastic alternative in milk/cream based soups. Most store based almond dairy have sweeteners and are very diluted which makes balancing the soup a very tedious task. With this in mind, I have provided a super easy recipe for fresh unsweetened almond cream in addition to this wonderful spiced Indian inspired spinach soup. If you are wondering, the soup does not smell of almonds as the aroma disappears when cooked with spices and garlic.

One might assume that dishes like ‘Cream of Mushroom Soup’ are out of reach for vegans and fortunately for us, this assumption is wrong! Creating an alternative to cream was easier than expected. All it required was almonds and filtered water. I would recommend making nut milk or cream at home as opposed to store-bought alternatives for a simple reason; you can control what goes into your food. Making a milkshake? Add some sugar and vanilla essence. Making a soup? Leave the sweet stuff out. So, along with a recipe for fresh almond cream, here is a recipe for a vegan cream of mushroom soup.  Hope you enjoy the recipe and if you want to keep up to date with my content, you can follow me on  Instagram(thedesivegan1 ) .
