Option 6: Original recipe for red bean soup with meat

Some housewives are afraid to start preparing bean soup, thinking that it is difficult and time-consuming. However, this opinion is wrong. Preparing a delicious first course for lunch is not at all difficult. Even if it's bean soup. A few simple step-by-step recipes will help you easily master this surprisingly satisfying dish.

  • a spoon of sunflower oil;
  • 0.5 cups dry red beans;
  • 2-3 small potato tubers;
  • salt and seasonings to taste.

Step-by-step recipe for red bean soup with meat

Start by soaking the dry beans in a large bowl with cold water. It is better to do this at night or at least three hours before the main cooking. During soaking, it would be good to rinse the beans and change the water 4-5 times. This is necessary to remove excess starch from the legumes.

Place the well-stuffed beans into a saucepan. Fill with hot water. Cook until fully boiling over high heat, then low. Cooking will take about half an hour if the beans have been soaked for a long time beforehand. Cook the beans until they are soft, but the beans should retain their shape. Then drain all the broth. The beans themselves can be washed or not, if desired.

At the same time, rinse the meat and cut into pieces. Place in a clean saucepan. Fill with ice water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Carefully remove all foam. Next, cook the beef over moderate heat with a low simmer and the lid almost closed.

Separately, peel and wash the onions and carrots. Chop these vegetables. Sauté a little in sunflower oil in a frying pan. Add tomato paste. Transfer to meat when it is tender.

Add potatoes to the soup. Pre-clean the tubers, rinse and cut into cubes or cubes.

After a couple of minutes, add beans to the soup. Stir. Season the broth with salt and seasonings. Cook until all ingredients are ready at a low boil. Now you can control the thickness of the soup. If desired, add hot boiled water to it so that the food becomes less thick.

There is one secret to how to quickly cook a piece of meat for soup. Beef or pork will become soft faster if you first lubricate the meat with a drop of table mustard or add a little sourness to the broth. This will be a teaspoon of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

Canned bean soup falls into the category of express recipes, simple and very quick to prepare. There is no need to soak the beans overnight; cook them for hours until tender, constantly adding water. It is enough to boil the potatoes, fry the vegetables in a frying pan and add a jar of prepared beans at the end of cooking. Just 15-20 minutes, and a tasty, nutritious and rich soup can be served. A great dish for bachelors and busy businesswomen, isn't it?

You can make your own changes to the basic bean soup recipe. Its taste will differ depending on what kind of beans you take: white, red, in their own juice or in tomato sauce. In the latter case, you can not add tomato paste to the soup or add very little of it, just 1 teaspoon for a more saturated color. By the way, instead of paste, fresh tomatoes or in their own juice, blanched and pureed, are suitable.

You can make bean soup with water, vegetable, chicken or beef broth, with beef or chicken. Or you can even turn it from lean to meat in just 2 minutes - just add two finely chopped sausages fried in a frying pan at the very end of cooking. Smoked meats will perfectly complement bean soup, making it more satisfying and nutritious.

Ingredients

  • potatoes 2 pcs.
  • 1 can canned beans
  • onions 1 pc.
  • carrots 0.5 pcs.
  • water or broth 1 l
  • bell pepper 0.5 pcs.
  • vegetable oil 1 tbsp. l.
  • tomato paste 3 tsp.
  • salt 1 tsp.
  • mixture of ground pepper 2 wood chips.
  • mixture of Italian herbs 2 wood chips.
  • bay leaf 1 pc.

How to make canned bean soup

  1. Peel the potatoes and cut into cubes. Place it in a saucepan or saucepan and fill it with water. Place on medium heat and cook for 10 minutes from the moment it boils. If you want to cook a thick soup, increase the number of potatoes to 3-4 pieces. If you want to speed up the cooking process, fill the potatoes with boiling water rather than cold water.

  2. While the potatoes are cooking, we are preparing the frying for the bean soup. Peel a large onion and chop it into small or medium cubes. Fry the onion in preheated vegetable oil until soft. You shouldn’t overcook it too much, otherwise the dressing will taste bitter.

  3. Add carrots to the frying pan with the sautéed onions, which must first be peeled and grated (you can use a special Korean grater or a regular one with small holes). Fry vegetables for 3-4 minutes until soft.

  4. Add a little bell pepper, cut into small cubes, fry for a couple more minutes and remove the pan from the heat. Poached bell peppers will add a very distinct flavor to the soup. If you don’t have fresh ones on hand, frozen or, in extreme cases, pickled sweet peppers will do. But it is necessary to add it so that the soup sparkles with all the flavor notes and turns out very rich and aromatic.

  5. Place the fried vegetables in the pan and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the potatoes are fully cooked.

  6. Add a can of canned beans (500 g) to the soup. If you use beans in their own juice, be sure to rinse them under cold water to remove any unappetizing mucus before adding them to the pan with the other ingredients. If you add beans canned in tomato sauce, there is no need to rinse them; add the entire contents of the can to the pan immediately.

  7. Immediately add tomato paste - you will need 3 teaspoons for soup with canned beans in their own juice or 1-2 tablespoons if the beans are in tomato sauce. Add salt to taste, bay leaf, as well as a mixture of ground peppers and dried herbs. If you like it spicy, you can add some fresh or dried chili peppers, cut into very small cubes.

  8. Bring the soup to a boil and remove the pan from the heat. At this stage, you can finish cooking or add smoked sausages at the very end of cooking - before that they need to be chopped and separately fried in a small amount of vegetable oil until golden brown.

After a couple of minutes, when the bean soup has infused a little under the lid, it can be served. Before serving, sprinkle with finely chopped parsley; you can add a spoonful of homemade sour cream to the dish.

Note

  • If desired, you can thicken the soup with canned beans. To do this, just add 1 tablespoon of flour to the roast, heat it for a minute, and then add the vegetable dressing to the soup.
  • If you don't like the sour taste of tomato paste, you can add 0.5-1 teaspoon of sugar - it will completely neutralize the acid.

Step-by-step recipe and useful comments

Soak the beans. I can’t say whether its color affects the taste, but it definitely affects the color of the soup. For some reason, I prefer soup made from burgundy beans, although it turns out less transparent. But this time my beans were white.

Useful information.

The beans need to be soaked not only so that they cook faster, they will cook anyway. When soaked in water, oligosaccharides dissolve, substances that our body does not want to digest; they cause gas formation and complicate the digestion process.

During soaking, the beans tripled in volume.

In fact, most often I cook first courses with meat and bone broth, it turns out just as good, and perhaps even tastier. It's just that this time I had the right piece of meat.

Be sure to put the meat in cold water for a richer and more tasty broth.

As soon as the water boils, remove the foam, turn the heat down, not allowing the broth to boil too much, otherwise it will become cloudy.

After boiling, cook the meat for 30 minutes, then add the well-washed beans. Cover with a lid and leave to simmer over low heat for about an hour.

During this time, cut the potatoes.

We also finely chop the onion and three carrots on a coarse grater (as an option, onion in half rings, carrots in circles, if you prefer such coarsely chopped vegetables at home).

Fry onions and carrots in sunflower oil. Since the onion takes longer to fry, we put it in the pan first. When it starts to brown a little, add the carrots and bring everything together to readiness.

Bean soup is a hearty, nutritious first course. The recipe for bean soup can be found on the menu of almost every nation in the world. Bean soups will pleasantly surprise you with a variety of options! They are able to saturate the body no worse than any meat dish, while all the vitamins and beneficial elements are preserved in the beans even after heat treatment. Nutritionists recommend including this product in any form in your diet at least once a week. For example, make bean soup; this is an ideal dish for those who are watching their weight and love to eat delicious food. Today we will tell you how delicious and easy it is to prepare bean soup.

Bean soup (red and white) can normalize blood pressure and sugar levels, cure gastritis, and eliminate some problems with the gallbladder and liver. Bean soup is indicated for pregnant women, as beans contain a lot of iron and folic acid, which are necessary for the normal development and growth of the fetus. Bean soup should be included in the diet menu. After all, the product is low-calorie and promotes weight loss.

Is it worth it to soak beans at all?

The peculiarity of preparing any dish from dry beans is that they must first be soaked for several hours. This is an important rule that will allow you to prepare not only a tasty, but also a healthy dish, without unpleasant consequences. All harmful substances will go into the water, including complex sugars, which make it difficult to process the beans, causing discomfort.

First, you need to thoroughly rinse the beans, sort them, and remove wrinkled and damaged beans.
Now you can move on to soaking. There are two ways to do this.


First way- long soaking. Place the beans in a large container and fill with water. Let it stand for 8-10 hours (less is possible, you should be guided by the beans - they should increase 2-3 times). During this time, you need to drain the water several times. If you soaked it overnight, add soda to the liquid at the rate of 0.5 teaspoon per 0.5 liter to prevent the liquid from souring.

  • Prolonged soaking destroys the oligosaccharides contained in the beans, which cause gas formation.
  • the beans do not burst during the cooking process, which is important if you are preparing bean soup;
  • the taste of the finished beans, which were soaked in this way, has a more pronounced and delicate taste.
  • you need to plan the preparation of the dish;
  • labor-intensive process - you need to change the water;
  • Soaking causes the beans to discolor.

Second way- quick soaking. Pour the washed beans into a large saucepan, add water in a ratio of 1 to 3, bring the liquid to a boil and turn off the gas. Let stand in hot water for 1 hour. After this, continue cooking.

Advantage of the method: fast, no need to plan the preparation of the dish in advance.

  • beans often burst;
  • the taste is not as rich as beans that have been soaked for a long time (but they absorb the aromas of spices better).

If you plan to cook the dish for a long time - about 4 hours, then you can skip soaking altogether. But you will have to cook on low heat, making sure that the liquid does not escape.

Red beans can also be cooked without soaking, and to speed up the process, you need to add 1 tablespoon of cold water to the pan every 5 minutes. As a result, it will be ready in about 2 hours. Canned beans are only washed.

After soaking, the beans are ready for further cooking.

Canned and green beans do not need pre-soaking.

How to cook beans

After soaking, drain the water and rinse the swollen beans under running water. Then place it in a large saucepan and add water so that it completely covers the beans. Bring the water to a boil and add a tablespoon of sunflower or olive oil to reduce foam.


Simmer the beans over low heat. You may need to add water to the pan from time to time during the cooking process. Depending on the type of beans, their shelf life and water hardness, the cooking time can range from 0.5 to 2.5 hours.

There is no need to stir during cooking, and the pan does not need to be covered with a lid.

To know if it's ready, mash one piece with a fork or your fingers. Ideally, the beans should be soft, but not mushy. If the beans are still crunchy, then leave them to cook further and check for doneness every 10 minutes.
