How to Serve the Mix-Veg Soup?
If you like your mix vegetable soup chunky, then you may serve it straight from the pot, in this case, pressure cooker. Otherwise, if you are like me then you may give it a whizz in a blender and sieve it for a smooth soup. However, sieving eliminates the fibrous components which i would not advise you with.
So, if you are trying to up your intake of fibrous food or making your infant practice chewing, then I would suggest you to leave it be. Enjoy the odd bits & pieces of the veggies in your mix vegetable soup.
