Vegetable Soup Recipe

As the winter season settles in, there’s nothing quite like a steaming bowl of soup to warm you from the inside out. This easy-to-make Vegan vegetable soup recipe is one of my favorite go-to soups, especially when craving a warm bowl of homemade soup.

To make this simple and quick vegan soup recipe, you will need a combination of fresh and frozen veggies:

Vegetable Soup Ingredients:

• Potatoes
• Carrots
• Frozen corn
• Frozen peas
• Vermicelli noodles
• Bouillon powder.
• Spices: turmeric, cumin and garlic powder
• Salt & pepper
• Chopped parsley: optional.

How to make Vegetable Soup:

• Heat the olive oil in a pan, then add the diced potatoes & carrots to sauté.
• Add the spices, salt & pepper & sauté for 10 minutes.
• Next, add the hot water with bouillon powder & let it simmer.

Tips for customizing your Vegetable Soup:

This vegetable soup recipe can be easily customized and tailored to your unique preferences:

• Mix and Match Vegetables: While this recipe calls for specific vegetables, experiment with different combinations to suit your taste and/or seasonality. Swap out or add vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or even sweet potatoes to give your soup a personal touch.
• Spice Up Your Seasonings: Adjusting the seasonings is an easy way to customize the flavor profile of your soup. For a spicer soup, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
• Experiment with Broths: While homemade vegan bouillon powder is used in this recipe, you can change things by using vegan/vegetable broth.
• Get Creative with Herbs: Fresh herbs can elevate the taste of your vegetable soup. Add fresh rosemary, thyme, or basil instead of fresh parsley as a garnish.
• Vermicelli noodles ” shairiyya” were added to this soup recipe to thicken it; instead, consider adding quinoa, oats, or mini soup pasta.

How to serve the Soup:

The soup can be served as a starter to your main meal, such as lunch or dinner, or as a light lunch or dinner on its own. Serve it along a side of warm crusty bread or a slice of freshly baked baguette. The bread can be used for dipping into the soup or enjoyed alongside each spoonful.

How to store leftovers:

Firstly, it’s important to let the soup cool down before transferring it to a storage container. Once cooled, transfer the soup into a glass air-tight container and store it in the refrigerator. The soup can typically be stored in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
