Categories     Soup

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large onion (for marinade )
1 lb pork
1 large onion (for the soup)
2 large carrots
1 1/2 cup white beans
qt boiled water
2 tbsp salt (adjust to taste)
1 tbsp ground black pepper (adjust to taste)
3 tbsp dill (to garnish )
2 bay leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut pork into 2-inch cubes. Slice one of the onions into rings and place directly on top of the pork. Press down on the onions lightly to squeeze out some of their juice. Place in the fridge to marinate overnight.
  • Take the pork out of the refrigerator. Remove the onions and throw them away. In an oiled soup pot over medium heat, sear the sides of the pork until they brown.
  • Add the diced onions and sliced carrots. Sauté until the veggies turn golden brown.
  • Add the white beans, bay leaves and boiled water. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for an hour and a half. Season with salt and pepper. Note: You may need to add more water, as the beans tend to absorb liquid.
  • Remove the soup from heat. Garnish with fresh dill and enjoy!

Categories     side-dish

Time 10h15m

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 cloves garlic
2 medium carrots
1 serrano chile
1 large white onion
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons ground cumin, or more as desired
2 cups dried pinto beans, soaked overnight
1 orange, halved
1 tablespoon salt, or more as desired

Steps:

  • Rough chop the garlic, carrot, serrano and onion into small pieces. Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the chopped vegetables and 1 teaspoon cumin to the pot and cook until the onion starts to brown.
  • Strain the beans and add them to the pot. Pour in enough water to just cover the beans. Cover and bring them to a boil. Stir, then cover again and lower to a simmer. Simmer the beans until they start to burst, around 1 hour.
  • Uncover the pot and add the orange, squeezing the juice into the pot and then dropping the halves in. Stir in the remaining teaspoon cumin and the salt. Continue to simmer to allow the beans to thicken, about 45 minutes more. Add more cumin and salt to taste.
  • Serve as a side dish, over rice, or on their own on a taco.
