To prepare, simply open the can and pour the contents into a saucepan. Heat gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is thoroughly warmed through. Avoid boiling, as this can alter the texture of the ingredients. Alternatively, you can microwave the soup in a microwave-safe bowl, covered, for a few minutes, stirring halfway through. It is best served hot.
