- 2 capsicums
- 1 to 2 tins of canned tomatoes (diced or whole)
- 3 carrots
- 1 container approx.10 oz. of canned mushrooms (khumbh)

- Cut the green pepper into bite size pieces and put in pot.
- Take the outer leafs layers off the cabbage, cut into bite size pieces, put in pot.
- Clean carrots cut into bite size pieces, put in pot.
- Slice mushrooms into thick slices (otherwise they will disappear in the soup), put in pot.
- If you would like a spicy soup, add a small amount of cayenne pepper (red pepper) now (1/3 teaspoon is quite a bit as the soup will get spicier as it cooks further).
- You can use beef or chicken bouillon cubes for seasonings. they have all the salt and flavors you will need.
- Use about 12 cups of water (or 8 cups and the v8 juice), cover and put heat on low. let soup cook for a long time (two hours works well).
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
