   3. Finally, add the dried red chilli pepper flakes. Stir. I put the lid on my steam cooker & let it sit for about 15 minutes on high heat. Then, I turn the heat off & carefully place the steamcooker on another side of the stovetop. With the help of a wooden spoon, I put the valve open & let the steam slip away. When there is no steam left & it has stopped sizzling , you can open the steam lid. Now, taste your soup. It has to taste fab. Liquidize your soup.

   But if you don't have a steam cooking pot, just boil the soup until the vegetables are cooked trough, after 15 to 25 minutes, I think. Taste & liquidize as well.
