Slow-simmered drumsticks release a buttery, pepper-laced broth that smells like comfort before the first sip. It’s silky, slightly smoky, and quietly bold, one of those soups you don’t rush, you linger over.
2 drumsticks 1 tbsp butter 1 tsp chopped garlic 1 tsp black pepper powder 1 small chopped onion 3 cups water Salt to taste 1 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
Melt butter till it smells nutty, then slide in garlic and onions, cook till edges turn lightly golden, not pale.
Toss in drumsticks and coat them in that buttery base so they start releasing flavour early.
Add water, salt, and let it bubble gently, not aggressively, for a deep extraction.
Press the drumsticks to pull out the soft pulp, then strain for a smooth, glossy soup.
Finish with a hit of pepper and coriander right at the end for that fresh, sharp lift.
