2) In a 3-4 pint saucepan, over a low heat, heat oil and sauté together potatoes, onions, carrots and celery in it to release an aroma.
3) Stir in lentils, peas and their liquor and cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
4) Slowly add in cabbage and cauliflower, allowing the liquid to just simmer to preserve the green color.
5) Cook the mixture again for 10 minutes and mix in garlic, salt and yeast extract.
6) Take off from heat and pour in evaporated milk and seasonings.
