Canned red bean soup

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook soup with canned red beans? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can add the onion whole during cooking or cut it into cubes and fry it along with carrots and potatoes (step 9). Zucchini can be replaced with zucchini. Just choose young zucchini with intact, tender skin so that you don’t have to cut it off - during the process of frying and boiling, zucchini without skin can boil into mush, but you want the pieces to remain intact.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the tomatoes in water, make cross cuts on each one, scald with boiling water and leave for 2-3 minutes. Then remove the skins from the tomatoes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the tomatoes into medium cubes. Instead of fresh tomatoes, you can use canned chopped tomatoes in their own juice.

4. STEP 4

   

   Rinse the zucchini thoroughly in running water, trim the tip, dry and cut into medium cubes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the potatoes in running water with a brush, dry, rinse and cut into small cubes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Wash the carrots with a brush in running water, peel, rinse and dry. If the carrots are small in diameter, cut them into quarters. It is better to cut large carrots into small cubes. In general, all vegetables should not be chopped coarsely (otherwise the soup will be uncomfortable to eat), but not finely chopped (otherwise the vegetables will boil too much and you will end up with an unplanned puree soup).

7. STEP 7

   

   Wash the celery and cut into small slices.

8. STEP 8

   

   Peel the garlic and finely chop it with a knife.

9. STEP 9

   

   Drain the liquid from the canned beans, rinse under running water and drain in a colander.

10. STEP 10

    

    Heat vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add potatoes and carrots (and onion if adding chopped ones). Fry, stirring, for about 8 minutes.

11. STEP 11

    

    Add zucchini. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes more.

12. STEP 12

    

    Add tomato paste and garlic.

13. STEP 13

    

    Next add the chopped tomatoes. Stir and simmer everything together for 3-4 minutes.

14. STEP 14

    

    Pour in water or broth. At this stage, you can add a peeled whole onion, if it was not added chopped before. Salt and pepper the soup and bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat at a moderate simmer for 15-20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

15. STEP 15

    

    At the end, add the canned beans and heat everything together for another 5 minutes. Our simple and delicious vegetable soup with canned red beans is ready.

16. STEP 16

    

    Let the finished soup stand on the cooling stove for 5-7 minutes and pour into plates. If you wish, you can sprinkle the soup with chopped herbs. Bon appetit!
