Ingredients
1/3 cup shelled pistachios
4 cups Vegetable Stock
2 tbsp plain flour (maida)
3 to 4 drops green food colour
1/4 cup fresh cream
2 tbsp butter
salt to taste
Method
Make the slivers from a few pistachios and keep them aside for
decoration.
Put the remaining pistachios in a blender and make a fine powder.
Melt the butter gently in a pan, add the flour and stir, taking care
to see that the flour does not discolour, till you get the smell of
cooked flour.
Add the stock and simmer for a few minutes, whisking continuously so
that lumps do not form.
Add the green colour, cream and salt and mix well.
Serve hot garnished with pistachios slivers.
