How to make it
- In a medium to large saucepan (I use an aluminum oval dish) add the ingredients in evenly spread layers in the following sequence;
- 1 The olive oil, onions and tomatoes
- 2 The carrots and the potatoes followed by a sprinkle of the spice mix and a sprinkle of the chopped celery
- 3 Add the mushrooms then the beans and again a sprinkle of the spice mix and a sprinkle of the chopped celery
- 4 Add the cucumber and the green pepper and once again a sprinkle of the spice mix and a sprinkle of the chopped celery
- 5 Add the butternut or pumpkin chunks then the broccoli and cauliflower and sprinkle the remaining spice mix and chopped celery
- 6 Finally, add the peas, juice and all.
- This sequence is used so that some veggies don't cook to mush before the others are done.
- 7 Place on medium heat with lid on until you can hear it starting to boil, reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 1 1/2 hours. DO NOT STIR. This dish makes it's own sauce from the moisture in the veg, however, add a little water if it appears to be too dry. When the cauliflower is tender, it's ready! If you were itching to stir, do it now and transfer to a serving dish for the table. ENJOY!
