Found this year's ago in a friend's cook book. (New York Times?) Delicious, freezes and reheats beautifully. i prefer chopped coriander to the green onion garnish. i also prefer to toast my cumin seed before adding to this recipe. Serve with grainy bread and you have a complete protein and a dandy cleanser for your innards. Sour cream or Greek yogurt makes a nice topper, too.
Ingredients:
1 cup black beans (soaked)
7 cups broth
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, minced
1/4 cup celery, diced
1/2 cup carrot, finely diced
3/4 teaspoon cumin seed, toasted and crushed
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 hard-cooked egg, chopped
1 bunch green onion, chopped
1 cup coriander, chopped

1. Cook pre-soaked beans in stock for 2- 3 hours.
2. Saute veggies and add with spices to stock and beans.
3. Simmer for 30 minutes.
4. Puree.
5. Serve with garnish.
