Anyone know to cook soup?

I tasted a chicken gumbo soup in the restaurant. I liked it very much. Since then, I tried to make different types of soups - veg and nonveg, but didn't get good taste. Have anyone tried delicious soups? I would be glad if anyone could submit me a delicious and healthy recipe of soups.

There are many recipes to make a soup. However the easiest one is to take your favorite ingredients & pressure cook them. add a potato too to thicken. Once cooked, blend these ingredients in a blender & pass through through a strainer. Season & garnish as desired. The potato will make sure that the consistency is thick the need of a roux is eliminated. Pressure cooking the ingredients will ensure that nutrients are retained in the vegetable. This makes it a much healthier soup than all the traditional recipes. Boiled chicken pieces ca be added at the end if so desired.

Thank you........ I used to never add a potato. That might be the reason, I was not able to get thick paste. I will try adding a potato when I prepare soup next time and let you know the results.
