During winter we really look for hot soup bowl. Hot & sour soup is one of my best soup I love. Though it is spicy it creates good appetite and feels warm during winter. It's a special soup for this winter. We can adjust the spiciness and make this healthy soup at home. Combination of more vegetables adds richness to this soup. It is so simple to make and we can really add pungent to this soup by adding chilli sauce & soya sauce. Sour taste we get by adding vinegar.
