Beef Barley Soup with Roasted Vegetables image

The beauty of this soup is that you can roast the vegetables separately in the oven while it's simmering away. Then simply add them in during the last minutes on the stovetop. I love that the roasted vegetables keep their own bright flavors that add to this earthy bowl of warmth. -Gayla Scott, West Jefferson, North Carolina

BEEF AND BARLEY SOUP I



Beef and Barley Soup I image

We are remodeling the kitchen and getting very hungry for food again so I got out the slow cooker and made this soup. It's perfect when you do not have a lot of time. Since you can get soup bones that contain little fat, this soup is nearly fat-free. When the soup is cooled there is no visible fat at the surface.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the soup will be. Use fresh vegetables, lean beef, and a flavorful broth.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too much meat and vegetables to the pot, the soup will be too thick and the flavors will be muted. Add the ingredients in batches, if necessary.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the better it will taste.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar to brighten the flavors.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include crusty bread, crackers, sour cream, and grated cheese.

Conclusion:

This Caribbean beef barley soup is a hearty, flavorful, and nutritious meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover beef. Serve it with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
