Main Ingredients

Instructions

1

Sauté the aromatics

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Pro tip: Ensure the onion is soft before adding garlic to prevent burning.

2

Add garlic and spices

Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

3

Cook the vegetables

Add the sliced carrot and chopped red bell pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Pro tip: Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes for even cooking.

4

Add broth and tofu

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the cubed tofu.

Pro tip: Simmering the tofu helps it absorb the flavours of the broth.

5

Incorporate kale

Add the chopped kale to the pot and simmer for 10 minutes until the kale is tender.

Pro tip: Kale will reduce in volume as it cooks, so don't worry if the pot looks full initially.

6

Season and serve

Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

Pro tip: For additional flavour, serve with a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of soy sauce.
