    I added several cubes of beef bouillon and a little bit of sugar to the pot. The recipe as written is very bland and taste like tomatoes. It was much better after I spruced it up a little.

      So, you liked it better once it was no longer vegetable soup? What a weird modification.

    Too much tomato. Ends up being tomato soup with vegetables. 14 or 15 ounce can would be plenty. Added som beans. Great flavor from the Italian seasoning.

    This is my favorite vegetable soup recipe. I added squash, broccoli, cauliflower, a couple bay leaves, and minced garlic. I also added some sugar and heavy cream to even out the tomato taste and make it sweeter.

    Have made this several times, always delicious. My favorite veg soup recipe! I think the tomato paste and Italian seasoning make it especially good.

    Kerala Sambar is different from the typical Sambars made in the other South Indian states. Kerala Sambar is made using a mixture of different vegetables whereas the other sambhar is made using a single vegetable. The vegetables mostly added to Sambar are the following :- * Potato * Plantain (Vazhakka) * Yam (Chenna) * Carrot * Drum Sticks (Muringakka) * Okra/Lady’s Finger (Vendakka) * Beans * Sambar Cucumber (Velarikka) * Ash Gourd (Kumbalanga) * Ivy Gourd (Kovakka) * Tomato * Pumpkin (Mathanga)

    I've never been a fan of vegetable soup but this recipe was yummy. If you want the soup to taste extra flavorful, substitute your veggie or chicken broth for beef broth. I used beef broth and this recipe was excellent!
