Black Bean Soup #5

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Soups

 Ingredients List

  • 1 lb (or so) black beans; soaked
  • -overnight and rinsed well
  • 2 lg Onions; chopped
  • 3 Carrots; cut in halved
  • -slices
  • 3 Celery stalks; chopped
  • 1 -(up to)
  • 2 tb (heaping) chopped garlic
  • 1 -(up to)
  • 2 ts Cumin (seed or ground)
  • 1 ts Ground coriander
  • Salt to taste
  • Cayenne pepper to taste

 Directions

Simmer the black beans, garlic, and veggies in 2-3 quarts of water until
reasonably tender. Add the spices to taste and simmer 10-15 minutes
longer.

The veggies get a little dark-looking if added at the start, so
alternatively you can simmer the black beans until tender, saute the
chopped veggies in a little olive oil, and add them at the end with the
spices.

Another possible addition is a little sliced smoked sausage I use
turkey smoked sausage because it's lower in fat, but any would do.

Serve with cornbread or french bread. This soup freezes well, and is
better the next day too.
