Spicy Indian Potato Bean Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Put butter in a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and a little salt and cook, stirring, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 8 minutes. Add carrots and celery and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Add turmeric, ginger, cayenne and asafetida, if using. Stir to coat and cook for another minute or so. Add potato chunks and 6 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a brisk simmer. Add a healthy pinch of salt and cook until potatoes are soft when pierced with a skewer, about 15 minutes. Taste broth and adjust salt and heat as necessary: 1/4 teaspoon cayenne should suffice to make the soup fairly spicy, but add a touch more if you like.
• Use a potato masher to crush some of the potatoes, then continue to cook for another 5 minutes or so. This will help to thicken the soup slightly and give it more body. Turn off the heat.
• Make the tarka: Heat ghee in a small skillet over medium, but don't let it get too hot. Lower heat and add garlic and cumin seeds. Cook, stirring, until garlic is barely colored and cumin seeds have begun to brown, a minute or so. Add mustard seeds and green chile, if using. When mustard seeds begin to pop, after another minute, add the tarka to the soup and stir in.
• Ladle soup into low bowls, garnish with cilantro and serve. Pass lime wedges at the table.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, carrot, bell pepper, and garlic, and saute until the onions are translucent, about 15 minutes. Add the chili powder, coriander, cumin, oregano and crushed red pepper, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes with their juices, tomato juice, tomato paste, cheese rind, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Add the broth, garbanzo beans, cannellini beans, and lentils. Stir in the broccoli, zucchini, and yellow squash. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Decrease the heat to medium. Simmer, uncovered, until the lentils are tender and the mixture thickens slightly, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Season the stew to taste with more salt, if desired.
• Ladle the stew into bowls. Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and basil, and serve.

Steps:

• Stir in tomatoes and their juice, beans and their liquid, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Coarsely mash a third of the beans in pot using a potato masher or an immersion blender; stir to blend into soup.
• Top with yogurt, cilantro sprigs, and sliced chiles, and serve with pita chips.

Steps:

• Tip in the chopped tomatoes, half fill the can with water, and add to the pan. Pour in the stock and simmer on a medium heat for 10-15 mins, uncovered. Season, then whizz using a hand blender until smooth. Add the beans and red pepper, and cook for another 15 mins until the pepper is tender.
• Serve in bowls topped with a small pile of tortilla chips and a lime wedge.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cook carrots in butter for 4 minutes or until tender. Stir in the broth, potatoes, garlic and dill. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender., With a slotted spoon, remove half of the potatoes to a bowl; mash with a fork. Return to pan. Stir in the beans. In a small bowl, combine the flour, sour cream and pepper; add to soup. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes or until heated through (do not boil).

Steps:

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), add oil, and select Saute function. Add sausage to the hot pot; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Cancel Saute function and drain grease.
• Add potatoes, sweet peppers, onion, and pepperoncini to the pot. Add condensed soup, corn, green beans, and kale, then pour in milk. Season with chili-lime seasoning, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 8 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Steps:

• Peel your potatoes and cut them into large but stilll bite-size chunks. Place them in a large (8 cup) measuring cup until the 6 cup line is reached. Cover them with cold water and place in the refrigerator to prevent them from turning brown until you are ready for them.
• In a large stock pot, brown your ground beef and drain off the fat. Add in all seasonings and tomato sauce over medium heat - mix well.
• Drain water from potatoes and add into the stock pot along with the beans (you can drain them if you like - I usually don't), and the broths.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered for an hour or so, until the potatoes are really tender and all the flavors have melded together.
