108 CHAKRA SOUPS recipe 2 -Earth- "Muladhara chakra"


The muladhara chakra is your energetic foundation; it is about finding your path in life and standing on your own two feet. Muladhara is where you connect with and relate to your personal vehicle (your physical body) in your journey through life. It is the energy centre that enables you to ‘put down roots' and to nourish yourself physically and spiritually.
It is symbolised by a lotus with four petals and the color red. This center is located at the base of the spine in the coccygeal region. Dormant Kundalini rests here.

Recipe 2Muladhara, "Earth"variation#1

Preparation:
The soups have to be made with fresh ingredients. Please avoid as much as possible canned or even frozen food because it impacts not only the taste but also the nutrient aspects. I also advice of please do not freeze the soup.  
In general my recipe are for 2 meals for one person or one meal for two people. You can always cut the ingredients in half, if you want to make it less. 
When possible it is better if the soup can rest for sometimes before to be warmed up again and eaten. The rest will allow the flavours of the various ingredients to better melt into each other and bring up the final taste of the soup.
Ingredients:
1 oignon
1 or two clove of garlic
3 spoons of bio vegetable oil
1 zucchini
3 carrots
1/2 red bell pepper
a piece of yellow squash
3 or 4 full spoons of yellow dahl
fresh curry leaves 
1 small spoon of curry powder
a small piece of turmeric 
little piece of ginger
1 Bio vegetable cube
1 full big spoon of olive oil
fresh cilantro 

Put the oil into the pot then cut the onion into pieces add the garlic. Let it fry a little  while you will be cutting the other vegetable into pieces. Add the vegetables, the yellow dahl, the cube, the curry powder and 1 liter of boiling filtered water. Then add the curry leaves and finally the fresh turmeric and the ginger both grated. 
I never add any extra salt, the one contained in the cube is already enough!
Once the mix is boiling lower the flame and let it cook from 30 to 40 min, stir it once in a while. 
It is the dahl that determine the cooking time. Ten min before switching off the fire add the fresh cilantro. 
Once done switch off, add the 1 spoon of olive oil and stir. Let it cool down a bit before blending it in the pot itself. When you blend do not make it completely creamy but leaves some chunks, for that a manual blender is better. 
Now the soup is done let it sit and warm it up before eating.
