Method
Get ready by washing the carrot, beans, cabbage and coriander leaves. Peel and finely chop the onion, garlic and ginger. Trim the beans, cut the carrot and beans into small dice, and shred the cabbage. Finely chop the coriander leaves.
Heat oil in a kadai on medium flame for 1 minute until warm. Add onion, garlic and ginger. Sauté for 3 minutes until the onion is soft and the raw smell goes.
Add carrot, beans, cabbage and sweet corn. Pour in the water and add salt. Bring it to a boil on high flame for about 6 minutes until it bubbles well. Cook on medium flame for 8 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
Add black pepper powder and mix. Simmer the soup on low flame for 2 minutes until it bubbles gently and the pepper smell rises.
Add coriander leaves and switch off the flame. Serve the soup hot.
