Notes

  • Use freshly chopped vegetables for the best flavor and texture. Avoid frozen veggies, as they may turn mushy.
  • Always cook on high heat while sautéing to retain the crunchiness of the vegetables.
  • Adjust the seasoning gradually, tasting as you go, to achieve the perfect balance of spicy, tangy, and salty flavors.
  • Serve immediately for the freshest taste, as the texture of the vegetables and the consistency of the soup are best when freshly made.
