Simple Minestrone Soup

I love soups...all kind of soups be it western or chinese style. I used to buy cans of soup for the rainy days or supper. It is not as fresh with the preservatives and of cos there are not much ingredients inside. Thus I used the fresh vegetables to make it and keep inside the ziplock bags and freeze them. Great for rainy days and those days when you need a quick supper.

Ingredients:

2 small cans of Hunts tomato paste
1 large carrot - chopped into cubes
1 cauliflower - chopped into cubes
2 large US potatoes - chopped into cubes
3 stalks of celery - chopped into cubes
1 large yellow onion - chopped into cubes
1/2 round cabbage - cut into small sizes
black pepper
salt

Method:

1) In a pot, fry the onions to half cooked and add in the vegetables.
2) Fry for awhile and stir in the tomato paste. Mix well.
3) Add in hot water, stir well and bring to boil.
4) Season with salt and pepper.

PS:

To keep the soup, make sure they are entirely cool down then put in ziplock bags. Make sure you let out all the air in the ziplock bag if your soup is not full in it.
If you want to defrost the soup, Use hot boiling water in a shallow pan and dip the ziplock bag in it. 

*You can also add in the pasta if you want it.
