When I cook vegetables, I always leave them a little crunchy in the end.

2. Add 4 cups of water. But you can add less or more water, depending on the consistency of soup, you like.
3. Bring it to a boil, cover, and cook for about 5 minutes. The softness of the vegetables can be controlled according to your preference.
4. Add paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
