Albanian Bean Jahni Soup For Pressure Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot add rinsed presoaked white beans and water. Bring to a full boil and cook for 10 minutes.
• In a skillet on medium heat add butter and onion. Cook until tender. Add to the beans.
• Add the tomato paste, chopped parsley, sweet paprika, and chili powder. Mix well. Reduce heat to low (or a simmer) and cook covered 3 - 4 hours. Adding more water if needed. Add sea salt, to taste.
• Enjoy especially after a day or two covered in the refrigerator! (Soups tend be better over a bit of time and this one benefits extensively).

Steps:

• In a 6-quart or larger stovetop pressure cooker or an electric pressure cooker, heat the oil over medium-high heat or using the sauté function. Stir in the onions, chile powder, cumin and oregano and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions begin to soften, about 1 minute.
• Add the water, beans, chorizo, garlic and bay leaves.
• Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 30 minutes. If using an electric pressure cooker, cook on high pressure for 30 minutes.
• Turn off the heat if using a stovetop cooker, and allow the pressure to come down naturally, about 15 minutes. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow the steam to escape.
• Stir well. Discard the bay leaves and add salt to taste. The soup will thicken on standing.
• Just before serving, prepare the avocado salsa by tossing the ingredients together in a bowl. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each portion with a large dollop of salsa.

Steps:

• Follow directions on bean bag for presoaking the beans.
• Drain and rinse beans, sit aside.
• In the pan melt butter (or bacon grease) over medium heat. Cook onions and garlic until soft and lightly brown.
• Add beans, ham hock, and water to pressure cooker. Put on lid and seal. Bring heat up to high.
• Once pressure has been reached, reduce heat to low and cook for 30 minutes.
• Remove the pressure cooker from heat and release the pressure with a quick release method. Remove the cover and test beans for doneness. If necessary cover and return the pot to pressure and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Remove the ham hock from the soup. Discard the skin and bones. Chop the remaining meat and add it back to the soup.
• Season with additional salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot with crumbled corn bread.

Steps:

• Boil beans in hot water in an uncovered pot for 5 minutes. Rinse and boil for another 15 minutes in a covered stock pot in 3 cups hot water.
• Saute onion in olive oil until it turns yellow. Add 2 tablespoons bean stock from the pot along with tomato sauce, parsley, salt and chili powder to taste.
• Cook for 10 minutes or until a thick sauce is formed, then pour everything into the pot. Add chopped mint, cover tightly and cook on High pressure for 30 minutes in a pressure cooker (or simmer 2 hours on stove). This should produce a thick juice, covering beans by inch.
• Serve hot.
