How to make Vegetable Thukpa ~ A Delicious Vegetarian Noodle Soup

First make the vegetable stock with the cauliflower middle stalk, the cabbage leaves, carrots, onion, potatoes, garlic and the peppercorn.
Pressure cook this with 6 cups of water in a cooker. Say about 3 whistles.
Let the pressure drop naturally mash up the vegetables then strain the liquid. This liquid is the stock.
Heat butter, add ginger, onions and garlic sauté for a few minutes. Add the vegetable stock. Bring to a boil. Add noodles.
Cook till the noodles soften. Add some spinach (if using) and the cabbage, carrots and peas. Switch off the gas.

My Tip:

The stock can be made from vegetable scraps and kept in the freezer also.
