Let's get started on how to make cabbage carrot corn soup with homemade stock

Step-1 Prepare stock

Soak the cabbage in warm water with salt added to it for 10 minutes to remove any impurities. Peel off and discard the outer cabbage leaves. I also prefer peeling off the carrot.
Grate cabbage and carrot using a grater. You can also chop it. Do whatever is comfortable for you. I like grating veggies as in this way these cook faster, and also, veggies are easier to eat in the soup.

Add cabbage, carrot and corn kernels, salt, red chilli powder and water into a pan. Cover with a lid and cook for 12-15 minutes on low heat. (picture below)

When veggies are cooked, strain them, and homemade stock full of nutrition is ready. Save this stock for the next step for the soup. (image below)

Step-2 Prepare soup

Add oil to a medium-hot pan, and cook chopped garlic and onions.

Once onions and garlic are softened, add cooked veggies and saute for the next 5 minutes.
Pour in salt, lemon juice, oregano, and stock (prepared above), and simmer for 8-10 minutes. (pic below)

Butter - Use butter instead of oil if not for weight loss purposes for rich flavour.
