Bonn vegetable soup is a thick soup made with cabbage, tomatoes, green bell peppers, carrots, celery stalks, and onions, seasoned with ginger, garlic, and coriander. The tomatoes are peeled and pureed, while the other vegetables are covered with cold water and brought to a boil. The onions are sautéed separately in olive oil and added to the soup later. It is a light, meatless soup, ready in about 25 minutes, that serves six.
