Step 1

Heat ghee in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and cook for 1 minute.

Stir in turmeric, coriander, black pepper, cinnamon, ground cumin, sea salt, cloves, bay leaves, ginger, garlic, and diced onion. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 3

Add rice, mung beans, green beans, asparagus, carrots, peas, spinach, squash, and vegetable broth.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Ayurvedic Suggestions

  • Vatas:

    Enhance flavor with lemon or extra salt, or add yogurt for creaminess.

  • Pittas:

    Substitute zucchini for carrots and halve the number of bay leaves for a milder taste.

  • Kaphas:

    Introduce a chili for warmth, omit the tahini drizzle, and swap squash with cauliflower for a lighter option.

Ayurvedic Lifestyle Tip:

Embrace tranquility by adorning your home or office with a vase of fresh flowers. Immerse yourself in nature's beauty—their vibrant hues, captivating scents, and elegant forms—for an instant calming effect during moments of stress.
