  • 300 gram Dried Beans
  • 1,5 liter Stock

  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 1 Dried Chili or a teaspoon dried chili flakes

Instructions

Preparations - 8 Hours Ahead

  • Soak the dried beans in water for about 8 hours or overnight.

Cooking

  • Cut the onion in cubes and the garlic and carrots in slices.
  • Add some olive oil to the cooking pan, and bake the onion, carrots and garlic until glossy. Then add the beans, stock, the bay leaf, clove and dried chili. Bring this to a boil and let it cook for an hour.

Blending

  • You can blend the soup until completely smooth or partially. I always love to blend 2/3 of the soup, so there is still some texture in the soup.

Serve with..

  • Serve the soup with a few dots of creme fraĆ®che, sundried tomatoes & chopped spring onions.
