This is one of my favourite soups that my mum made when I was young. It's tasty and filling and perfect for the colder months. I often double this amount and sometimes vary water and stock. It always tastes best the day after it's made and goes well with fresh bread.
Ingredients:
440 g borlotti beans
1 -2 tablespoon butter
1 potato, peeled and diced
1 slice bacon, chopped
1 onion, sliced
1/2 red capsicum, chopped
1 tablespoon paprika
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup water
1 cup beef stock
parsley (to garnish)
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a large saucepan and add potato, bacon, onion, capsicum and paprika. Fry for 2-5 minutes.
2. Add borlotti beans, water, stock and tomato paste and bring to boil.
3. Simmer for 20-30 minutes, season to taste and garnish with parsley.
