- Heat the oil in a pan. Add the onion and cook for 10 minutes. Add the spices, cook for 30 seconds, then stir in the vegetables, stock and tomatoes. Season well and bring to the boil.
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Whizz smooth with a hand blender.

Freezing and defrosting guidelines
Make the soup, then leave to cool at room temperature. Freeze (without garnishes or toppings) in a rigid container, leaving a bit of space for expansion, for up to 1-3 months. Reheat either from frozen or defrost in the fridge overnight. Once piping hot, add toppings or garnishes and serve.
