Bean stew

Bean soup is a very tasty, filling and healthy hot dish. Bean soup will warm you up on a winter day and fill you up in the summer heat. To prepare the soup, you will need green beans. This dish is good because it can be cooked all year round: in the summer from fresh beans, and in the cold season - from frozen ones. It is ideal if you have a bean crop in your garden and you have prepared it for the winter by putting it in the freezer. In this case, there will be no doubts about the freshness and naturalness of the products.

How to cook Bean stew

Step 1

Bean stew

Prepare the broth. Put the meat in a saucepan and pour in cold water. Put it on the fire, let it boil, drain the first broth. Pour in clean water and bring to a boil again. Make the heat moderate, cook for 45-50 minutes, until the pork is soft.

Step 2

Bean stew

Prepare the vegetables. Put the potatoes in the broth, cook for 7-10 minutes, add the onion and carrots to the pan, cook for 5 minutes. Add the beans, cook for another 5-7 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste, as well as bay leaf and herbs, cook for 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, cover with a lid and let it sit for 5 minutes.
