Notes & Suggestions

Soups are increasingly popular at buffets. Just take out small transparent glasses or colored mint tea glasses from your cupboards. Pour the hot soup into the glasses, using a spout for example. Add a dollop of sour cream on top, a pinch of curry, and some chopped coriander leaves.
