Water is cost-effective and can be flavored with herbs.

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat until foamy.

Add chopped onions, garlic, and ginger; sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in mixed vegetables and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.

Pour in vegetable broth and add thyme, bay leaf, and nutmeg; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until vegetables are fully cooked.

Remove bay leaf and blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or regular blender.

Return the soup to the pot and stir in heavy cream; heat gently until warmed through.

Season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to taste.

Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
