Begin by cleaning and cutting the vegetables into small pieces. Then, finely dice the onion and mince the garlic. Spray the pot with the cooking oil in a spray, add the diced onion, and sauté until it becomes translucent. Next, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for about a minute until fragrant. Now, it’s time to add the carrots and celery, and continue sautéing for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

After mixing, pour in the water (you can also use broth), increase the heat, and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and let it simmer for approximately 20–30 minutes or until the carrots are tender. Then, do a taste test and season with salt and pepper if necessary before serving.

Serve the soup warm, and consider garnishing it with herbs or fresh vegetables for an extra touch.
