Healthy Herbal Soup | Cooking for Benefits

Welcome to your healthy recipe making channel "Cooking for Benefits", In this video let's make a soup for cold & cough with a herbal plant.

The plant we used for this soup is called Solanum Trilobatum or also known as "Purple Fruited Pea Egg Plant” in English.
Thoothuvalai in Tamil, Tutavalam in Malayalam, Alarkapatramu in Telugu, Mullu kaaka munchi in Kanada.

We can easily identify thuthuvalai plant with the leaves and the beautiful purple flowers.

Health Benefits of the plant:
FOR COLD, COUGH AND THROAT IRRITATION
Consuming thoothuvalai could help treat cough, cold and throat irritation in both kids and adults.
RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS
Widely used in the treatment of tuberculosis, bronchial asthma, difficulty in breathing, sinus, chest congestion and other respiratory problems.

Thuthuvalai soup is very effective for treating chest congestion, cough, blocked nose and it is good even for people who suffer from sinus infection and I have shared the recipes for both rasam and soup in the video.

Thuthuvalai is used as a leafy vegetable, we can also prepare curries and chutneys using these leaves.
Take care while plucking the Thuthuvalai leaves, as the plant is fully covered with thorns.
Avoid using the thorn areas, cut the thorns as shown in the video.

Ingrediants:
8-9 leaves
3 dry red chili
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
7-8 garlic cloves
small lemon size tamarind
1 tomato
3 sprig curry leaves
coriander leaves
1 tsp oil
1/2 tsp mustard
1/4 tsp fenugreek seeds
1/4 tsp asafoetida
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
