For vegetable stock:
- ½ medium Onion diced
- ⅛ medium Cabbage roughly cut
- 1 small Carrot roughly cut
- 1 small Capsicum diced
- Coriander
- 4 cups Water
For corn slurry (optional):
- ½ tsp Corn starch
- 2 tbsp Water
Take a pot, add the cut veggies, and pour some water in it.
Give them a boil, and then let it simmer for at least 30 minutes (more the time, more the flavor).
Separate the veggies and the stock, and in the same pot, add oil, garlic, and green chilies, and saute them for 30 seconds on medium heat.
Now add the vegetable stock to the pot with the aromatics, add salt and pepper, and let it simmer for a minute.
Finally, add corn slurry to thicken up the soup to the desired consistency, or ignore it if you're satisfied with the consistency already.
Your clear soup is ready to be served.
- Variations to the stock: I used the bare minimum of veggies for the stock, but you can also add more like celery, green beans, and cauliflower to add more depth to the flavors.
- Make a veggie-loaded soup: If you want something more substantial and add texture to the soup saute some shredded veggies like spring onions, carrots, cabbage, green beans, and even mushrooms alongside garlic and green chilies.
How to store:
In the fridge: This soup can last for up to a week in the fridge. Just transfer the soup in an air-tight container before.
In the freezer: As far as freezing goes, there will be no problem with the soup going bad as you can freeze it for at least 3 months.
Reheating: Thaw it overnight, and simply microwave the soup or simmer it in a pot until warm to your desired preference.
