Ingredients
2 cups of water
100g carrot, chopped
100g cabbage, chopped
100g celery stalk, halved
40g red capsicum
150g zucchini, cubed
10g spring onion
1 slice of fresh lime
½ tbsp cloves
1 tbsp fresh ginger root
1 tbsp fresh chilli

Method
Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed.
Blend for 5 minutes 45 seconds or until heavy steam escapes from the vented lid. Serve immediately.
Notes: Add 1/2 cup (120ml) of coconut milk at the end of the blending cycle to give the soup a richer flavor. If you do not like spicy food, you may leave the chilli out of the soup.
