Cooking Instructions

  • Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant (3-5 minutes) and slightly translucent.
  • Toss in the chopped cabbage, diced celery, and sliced carrots. Season with kosher salt and black pepper; cook until they begin to soften (5-7 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the ground turmeric, cumin, coriander, and Aleppo pepper. Make sure the spices coat the vegetables evenly, enhancing their natural flavors.
  • Add the canned diced tomatoes and low sodium vegetable broth. Bring this glorious mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  • Just before serving, stir in the chopped parsley, green onions, grated ginger, and lemon zest/juice for a fresh pop. Ladle your nourishing soup into bowls and savor every comforting bite!
