Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spiced Hawaij Vegetable Soup.
Step 1
Begin by heating the olive oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. As the oil warms, add the chopped onion and sauté until it softens and turns translucent, which should take about 5 minutes. This step is crucial as it builds the flavor base for your soup. Next, introduce the cubed butternut squash and potato to the pot. Stir them in and let them cook for another 5 minutes, allowing their natural sweetness to develop. Now, it’s time to add the diced tomato, sliced celery, and carrots, along with the garbanzo beans and their liquid. Stir everything together and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes, letting the vegetables mingle and soften. Pour in the 5 cups of water and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once boiling, stir in the hawaij spice blend and vegetable bouillon powder, which will infuse the soup with a warm, aromatic flavor. Reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for about 15 minutes, or until all the vegetables are tender. This is the moment when the flavors truly come together. Finally, season your soup with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting it to your preference. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting warmth of this delightful soup.
