  • Use a variety of spices: Curry powder is a blend of spices that typically includes turmeric, cumin, coriander, and fenugreek. You can also add other spices to your soup, such as ginger, garlic, and chili powder.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can make your own vegetable broth or use a store-bought broth.
  • Simmer the soup for a while: Simmering the soup allows the flavors to meld and develop. You can simmer the soup for as little as 30 minutes or as long as 2 hours.
