1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook soup with beans and beef and potatoes? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Beef can be replaced with veal or lamb.

   Before you start cooking the soup, prepare the beans in advance. Beans should be poured with cold water in the evening and left to soak until the morning.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the meat in the pan. The article on saucepans, link at the end of the recipe, will help you choose the perfect soup pot. Add a medium-sized onion and a stalk of celery to get a richer, tastier and healthier broth. Pour two liters of cold water and place on high heat with the lid closed.

   Drain the beans. In a separate small saucepan, boil the beans until tender. This will take approximately 50-60 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   After the water boils in the pan with the meat, skim off any foam that has formed using a large spoon. Add salt to taste, reduce heat to medium and cook the meat under a half-closed lid for at least 1.5 hours until the meat is soft.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the finished beans in a colander.

   Remove the boiled meat from the broth, discard the onion and celery. If desired, you can strain the broth.

   Prepare the vegetables. Peel the onions, carrots and potatoes and rinse under running water. Chop the carrots and onions into small pieces. Carrots can be grated.

9. STEP 9

10. STEP 10

    

    Return the pan with the broth to high heat and add beans, potatoes, tomato sauce, onions and carrots.

    When the soup is ready, turn the heat under the pan to high. Place the chopped meat and finely chopped herbs into the pan.

We love bean soup, this time we made it with beef. I had homemade beef, but I had to cook it for about two hours to get the meat really soft and tender. I strained the broth and diluted it with boiling water, and then added the vegetables. I liked that the carrots and onions are used raw, this reduces the cooking time, and even though sometimes you want just such a soup, without frying) I had red beans, I soaked them for six hours, after which I boiled them for half an hour. My soup with beans and meat turned out beautiful, with a clear broth. I added a whole clove of garlic and a bay leaf 10 minutes before the end of cooking, and then removed it. I rarely add greens to the pan, usually directly to the plate if desired, but this time I added dill and the soup turned out much more aromatic than usual) In general, the whole family liked the soup, it’s tasty, a lot of healthy meat and tender vegetables.

excellent, satisfying bean soup, and even with meat, just a storehouse of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, but I’ve also heard about this version of this soup. what can you say?
