Mixed Vegetable Soup

Let’s try our hand at making a classic favourite, served at restaurants and homes across the world! The Mixed Vegetable Soup has a kind of universal appeal, cutting across boundaries like age, culture and geography.
At most, you will find people lacing it with some sauces, adding a dash of pepper to it, or changing the combo of veggies used, but it is rare to find somebody who does not like it. Here, we have combined tangy tomatoes with an assortment of veggies like onions, cabbage and capsicum, which contribute a rich aroma and flavour to the soup.
Enjoy it hot and fresh, setting the right pace for a lovely dinner.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes.
Cooking Time: 20 minutes.
Serves 3.

1½ cups roughly chopped tomatoes
¼ cup roughly chopped onions
½ cup roughly chopped cabbage
¼ cup roughly chopped capsicum
2 tsp oil

1. Heat the oil in a pressure cooker, add the onions and sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
