For a richer flavor, consider using homemade vegetable stock. If you prefer a vegan option, substitute the butter with olive oil or coconut oil. The soup can be served hot or cold, making it a versatile dish for any season. Adjust the cayenne pepper to your preference for spiciness.

01
Step

Gently steam the zucchini until just tender. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add zucchini, cover, and steam until slightly tender, about 5-6 minutes.

Sauté the aromatics. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, approximately 5-10 minutes.
03
Step

Infuse with spice. In a separate small bowl, combine the grated ginger, cumin, coriander, mustard seeds, ground cinnamon, turmeric, cardamom, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper. Incorporate this spice blend into the sautéed onions, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
