Indian Vegetable Soup is a comforting soup, packed with a variety of fresh vegetables- cauliflower, peas, radish, tomato, capsicum and leafy bathua, simmered over the stove top in a simple homemade way!
If you are following my blog, you know how much I obsess over curating new soup ideas. The best thing about all of these vegetarian soups is that they are all made without heavy cream or sour cream and use fresh ingredients.
Naturally, they are packed with flavor and taste and can be made ahead of time for busy weekdays.
This mix vegetable soup uses Indian seasonal vegetables- cauliflower, radish and bathua. Bathua is leafy green available in winters (also called Chenopodium album).
Light, cozy and so full of nutrition, this veg soup is all that you need for a lazy weekend!

Ingredients
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
- Vegetables- I have used local veggies-cauliflower, bathua leaves, radish, capsicum, onion, tomato and garlic.
- Ghee or Olive Oil- Used for sauteing cauliflower and tempering other veggies.
- Salt, black pepper and lemon juice.
- Water or Veg Stock- I have used freshly made veg stock.
How to Make Mix Vegetable Soup Indian style
Step 1. Prepare the vegetables for Veg Stock
Wash, peel, and chop veggies. Sort bathua leaves and wash them. Put the leaves in colander for draining excess water.
Take out veggies that you want to add later- cauliflower, peas, radish, etc.
Step 2. Cook Veggies
Place the pan on gas and put flame full for the first boil and then simmer it and you may add little salt at this step for faster cooking. Also, you may cover with a lid (lid with hole). Here ensure that lid doesn't fall off due to the pressure of steam. Let the veggies cook for about 10 min and they will be fork-tender. Sieve them and that's how the veg stock looks like.
I have roasted cauliflower chunks till browned in oil. Keep them aside for adding later.
Step 3. Serve It.
Add the veggies kept for the soup in the veg stock and heat for 2-3 minutes on a slow flame. Top the Indian Mix vegetable soup with cilantro leaves and serve hot.
