Grandma Rose's Split Pea Soup with Beef Flanken image

We've never had a pea soup quite like this one! The addition of barley and dill were ingenious... We can't wait to have it again!

Categories     Vegetables

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large onions, yellow
6 g celery stalks
6 carrots
2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
2 lb beef short ribs (flanken)
1 lb green split peas
1/2 lb pearl barley, uncooked
3 Tbsp dill, dried
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Chop the onions, celery and carrots. Aim for 1/2-inch pieces, but don't get all OCD about it. You want them all roughly the same size, but a little bigger or smaller won't make a difference at all.
  • 2. Heat the oil in a large pot and brown the ribs on all sides. Remove the ribs to a plate, then add the chopped vegetables to the fat in the pot. Stir a minute or two until everything is coated in fat and starting to soften.
  • 3. Put the meat back in the pot, then add the split peas, pearl barley and dried dill. Add enough water to cover it all and bring the pot to a boil. Turn the heat down to low, cover the pot, and simmer the soup at least 2 hours, until it is thickened and the meat is tender.
  • 4. Shred the meat with two forks (or your fingers if you've let the soup cool for a while). The bones will have slipped out of the meat, so fish them out from the bottom of the pot with a spoon. Season with salt and pepper - you will need much more salt than seems reasonable, but keep salting until it tastes right to you. Serve hot for a hearty one-pot lunch or dinner.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some leftover carrots, celery, and onion to the soup and it turned out great.

This soup is a great make-ahead meal. I made it on the weekend and then reheated it during the week for lunch.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover beef. I always have some leftover roast beef or steak in the fridge, and this is a great way to use it up.

I've made this soup a few times now and it's always a hit with my family. The beef flanken adds a delicious richness to the broth, and the split peas give it a nice body.
