2. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chili. Sauté for a couple of minutes until the raw aroma disappears.

Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they become soft and mushy.

Add turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Cook the spices with the tomatoes for a few minutes.

5. Pour in the vegetable stock or water and bring the mixture to a boil. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend the soup until smooth. If using a regular blender, let the soup cool slightly before blending.

7. Return the soup to the pot and adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes.

8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh coriander leaves.
