Goan Macaroni Soup – with a twist.

The Goan Macaroni Soup – with a twist is derived from the simple Goan Macaroni Soup (click here). What I have done here is added some light soya sauce, corn flour and an egg white to give it a Chinese like rendition. You can serve this soup with some chilly-vinegar or some extra soya sauce.
