Method

1. Start by adding 3 cups of water into a pot.
2. Add in the chopped carrots, cabbage, capsicum, cauliflower, French beans, spinach, and the moong dal. If you want, you can also add some tomatoes to the mix.
3. Add salt to taste and give everything a nice mix.
4. Cover and cook until everything is perfectly done. Be very careful not to overcook anything, because it will look very mushy.

Chef's Tips

• Maintain the Texture: It is highly important not to overcook the vegetables; they should be cooked perfectly but not allowed to turn mushy.
• The Fiber Factor: Adding the oats at the very end ensures the soup is thickened nicely while providing the necessary fiber to make it a complete, satisfying meal.
• Healthy Tempering: Using a pure, cold-pressed option like SAACOOR Cold Pressed Coconut Oil for your tadka allows the spices to release their maximum aroma without adding heavily processed fats to a weight-loss dish.
