Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 red bell pepper, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded, diced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons cumin
60 oz black beans, 4 cans, drained, rinsed
4 cups vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
avocado, chopped, to serve
queso fresco, crumbled, to serve
fresh cilantro, chopped, to serve
tortilla chip, crumbled, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large stock-pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat until the oil begins to shimmer.
  • Add onions, celery, carrot, and bell pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften.
  • Add garlic, salt, and pepper, and continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes until vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent.
  • Add cumin, black beans, vegetable stock, and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer.
  • Cover the pot and cook over low heat for 30 minutes until the beans are very tender.
  • Remove the bay leaf. Transfer about 4 cups (900 g) of the soup to a blender and puree until smooth, being careful not to splatter hot soup all over yourself and kitchen.
  • Pour blended soup back into the pot and mix to incorporate.
  • Keep over low heat until ready to serve. Garnish with fresh avocado, queso fresco, chopped cilantro, and tortilla chips.
  • Enjoy!
