Mix Veg Clear Soup#SoupSwappers

This is clear soup, it's vegan and gluten free too.  For this soup, have used  all quick cooking vegetables.  These are chopped in the size that would help in cooking fast. The order of adding vegetables is also such, that the ones that take a little longer time, are added in first.


Serves 3 to 4
Ingredients

1 Tablespoon Each Red, Green, Yellow Bell Peppers
Tablespoons Finely Chopped Cauliflower
2 Tablespoons Boiled Sweet Corn
2 Tablespoons Finely Chopped Carrot
1 Spring Onion - finely chopped
1 Small Onion - finely chopped
1/2 Cup Cabbage - finely chopped 
1 Teaspoon Grated Ginger
1 Scallion / Spring Onion - finely chopped  
2 Tablespoons Olive oil
Tablespoon Coriander Leaves - finely chopped
1500 Ml  Water
2-3 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Tablespoon Soy sauce
For Serving As per Taste
Chilly Vinegar
Black Pepper powder
Salt to taste
Tomato Ketchup

Method
In a large sauce pan heat the oil, add onion sauté on high for a minute, add grated ginger, when the ginger is fragrant then add carrots. Sauté on medium high for a minute, add cauliflower, reduce the flame to sim, add little salt, just enough for these vegetables, cover and cook for about 2 minutes, as carrots and cauliflower need a little extra time to cook. 
Now add cabbage, spring onion, sweet corn , coloured bell peppers,  apple cider vinegar, soy sauce and water. Just bring it to rolling boil switch off the flame, that 's done. Want to retain the color and the crunch of the vegetables hence one rolling boil, is all I give. 
Serve this in soup bowls, garnished with coriander leaves.  Let each one add the seasoning to their choice and according to taste. 
Eat and drink this soup hot with a spoon, so that you enjoy the flavours and crunch of the veggies.
