2 tbsps cumin seeds
Large pinch of chilli flakes

125ml skimmed milk (use full if your not slimming)
1l vegetable stock ( use a cube)
Dry fry the seeds and chilli in a pan to toast them, remove half from the pan for garnish. add all the other ingredients and bring to the boil, turn down the heat and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes.
Season to taste.
Grind the reserved seeds slightly in a pestle and mortar and sprinkle on top when serving.
