Where to find ingredients
You can find cooked and seasoned beans in most supermarkets, often in the canned goods aisle or as pre-packaged meals. If not seasoned, you can buy regular dried beans and cook them with your preferred spices like garlic, onion, and bay leaves. Tomatoes and potatoes are readily available in the fresh produce section of any grocery store. Salt and pepper are standard pantry staples found in the spice aisle.
Preparation method
- Put the beans, water, and tomatoes into a blender
- Blend until you have a smooth mixture
- Pour the blended mixture into a cooking pot
- Add the diced potato
- Cook over medium heat until the potatoes are tender
- Check the consistency and add a bit more water if you prefer a thinner soup
- Taste the broth and adjust salt if needed
- Finish with black pepper to your liking and serve immediately
Observations
This soup is the perfect solution for using up leftover beans, transforming them into a nutritious and flavourful dish for chilly days.
