BLACK BEAN AND COCONUT MILK SOUP
From Fitness magazine February 2006. Very easy to make and vegan, too! As a suggestion, serve with Recipe #118085. Also, I like to cook up a pot of brown rice and add a large spoonful to each serving of soup for a complete meal in a bowl. Finally, I have reduced the coconut milk by half and the soup was still delicious! There you go!

Steps:
- In a soup pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the onion, garlic, cumin and chipotle. Saute, stirring occasionally for approximately 5 minutes.
- Add 1/2 cup water, reducing heat to low, continuing to cook for 12-15 minutes or until onion is softened.
- Add the black beans (plus the bean liquid if using canned), coconut milk, and 2 1/2 cups water or stock. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the soup for 15 minutes.
- Scoop out 1 cup of the beans and some liquid; place in a mixing bowl. Puree the 1 cup of beans until smooth then return to the soup pot. Stir to thicken, blending more beans if you wish to desired consistency. (Or you can use a hand held immersion blender and blend the soup that way.).
- Adjust seasoning if necessary, adding salt and pepper as needed.
- Garnish each serving with lime wedges, diced white onion and cilantro leaves and diced tomatoes.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Saute the green onion whites, red pepper, chilli paste and garlic for 5-8 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add the thyme, curry powder and allspice, then cook for 1 minute more,
- Stir in the tomatoes, then cook for 2 minutes to soften slightly.
- Crumble in the stock cube, then add in all the beans and the coconut milk. Simmer for 10 minutes Turn off the heat and stir in most of the green onion greens, the lime juice and salt and pepper.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with remaining green onion just before serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh coconut milk: Fresh coconut milk adds a rich, creamy flavor to the soup. If you don't have fresh coconut milk, you can use canned coconut milk, but be sure to use full-fat coconut milk for the best flavor.
- Choose the right beans: Any type of beans can be used in this soup, but some beans work better than others. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices. Avoid using beans that are too small, as they will get lost in the soup.
- Don't overcook the beans: Beans should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked beans will become mushy and ruin the texture of the soup.
- Add vegetables for extra flavor: Vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions add flavor and nutrition to the soup. You can also add other vegetables, such as bell peppers, corn, or zucchini.
- Season the soup to taste: The soup should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
