    Tips for Variations in Vegetable Soup:

    • Chinese-Inspired: For a Chinese twist, stir-fry the vegetables and add soy and chili sauces.
    • Indian Style: Add a burst of flavor with Indian spices like bay leaf, cumin, pepper, and cinnamon, along with onions and garlic.
    • Italian Influence: Infuse Italian seasonings and include a variety of vegetables and legumes like broccoli, sweet corn, mushrooms, beans, and chickpeas. Adding grilled chicken pieces can further enrich the soup.
