Instructions

  • Cut vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  • Fry onion and garlic in a big soup pot until translucent, about 5 minutes. I just used a little bit of water instead of oil.
  • Add the rest of the vegetables and fry for another 5 minutes.
  • Add the vegetable stock, canned tomatoes and spices and bring to a boil. Then turn down the heat to medium/high and allow the vegetables to cook for 25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft.
