Manchow soup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Manchow soup is a Chinese-style soup popular in Indian Chinese cuisine due to its ease of preparation and hot spicy taste. It is available in large restaurants and kitchen carts alike. Although the soup is named for Manchuria (滿洲, Pinyin: mǎnzhōu), the soup does not resemble any that is normally found in Chinese or Manchurian cuisine.
It is a dark brown soup prepared with various vegetables, scallions, and chicken (in the non-vegetarian version only), thickened with stock and corn flour, and flavored with relatively generous doses of soy sauce, salt, garlic and chile peppers. It may also be garnished with chopped scallions and dried crispy noodles.
