1. Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and peel all the vegetables, then chop them into medium-sized chunks. Uniform sizes will ensure even cooking and help you achieve a balanced flavor profile.
2. Sauté the Vegetables
Heat sunflower oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and sauté them for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. This enhances their flavors through gentle caramelization.
3. Simmer Until Tender
Cover the pot and lower the heat. Let the vegetables cook in their own steam for about 8 minutes until they’re tender. This step intensifies the flavors and creates a rich broth base.
4. Cool and Blend (Optional)
Once the vegetables have softened, you can choose to blend the mixture for a smoother texture. Use an immersion blender or food processor to purée the vegetables, although this is optional.
5. Freeze for Long-Term Storage
