Semolina Soup (Ganji) -- 10 min soup

Semolina Soup is an easiest soup to make in no time and is very much famous in Andhra Pradesh (South India). This soup is called ganji. Ganji is made out of broken wheat or even with rice but for a quicker version it is made with fine semolina. Semolina soup is filling and tasty and it is best liked by the kids. The crunchiness of boondi/bombay mix gives the soup to next level but its optional.Boondi is add to the soup just before serving.
Today's soup is the basic version but you can add finely chopped veggies or minced meat to make your own version but i love it very simple way. Give it a try a simpler version and modify to your taste buds.

Add roasted semolina and mix it well and then add water and salt. Bring the water to boil  and bring the heat to low.
