Yellow and Pink Soup
Jan. 7th, 2012 08:42 pmInvented within the last two hours, while trying to figure out what to do with this bag of fava beans. I invent soup frequently in similar circumstances, and most of them turn out badly. I'm happy with this one, though!
Name selected because this soup is very yellow, except for the salt bacon, which is unsurprisingly pink. I think it would be better with frozen fava beans, though of course in that case it would become Yellow and Pink and Green.
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium white onion, diced
1 large baking potato, peeled and diced
6 cups water
2 cups dried fava beans
3 tsp consomme powder (I used this stuff
)
some salt bacon
1 tsp marjoram
2 bay leaves
Instructions
1) Heat olive oil in pan. Sautee garlic until slightly brown, then add onions and sautee until translucent.
2) Add water, potato, fava beans, and salt bacon. Bring to boil.
3) Stir in consomme powder, marjoram, and bay leaves. Reduce heat to simmer. Cook for forty-five minutes or until potatoes and beans are soft.
