1
In a soup pot, heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil. Cook onion for 5 minutes, until translucent. Add garlic and cook for a minute more.
2
Transfer the cooked veggies to a blender. Add tomatoes, 1 cup of the broth, cumin, allspice, and cayenne pepper. Process until smooth.

Heat the remaining teaspoon oil in the same soup pot. Add noodles and cook them for 3-5 minutes, stirring. You have to stir continuously to avoid burning the noodles. When done, they have to be golden brown.
