{Thai mixed vegetable soup}


2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon magic paste*
1 cup Savoy cabbage finely shredded
1 cup daikon finely diced
1 cup cauliflower, coarsely chopped
4 celery sticks, coarsely chopped
5 cups vegetable stock
˝ package (6 ounces) fried tofu, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
3 tablespoons light soy sauce

Heat the oil in a large wok or skillet. Add the magic paste and cook over a low heat, stirring frequently, until it gives off its aroma. Add the cabbage, daikon, cauliflower and celery. Pour in the vegetable stock, increase the heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Gently stir in tofu cubes. Add the sugar and soy sauce. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, until the vegetables are cooked and tender. Taste and add more soy sauce as needed. Serve hot.

*Magic paste is a mixture of crushed garlic, white pepper and cilantro. Look for it at Asian markets.
