Ingredients for Bean Rib Soup

For 2.5-3 liters of water you will need:

• 300-400 g of pork or beef ribs;
• half a packet of legumes (beans, peas, different types of lentils) or a glass of beans;
• 3-5 medium sized potatoes;

Method for making soup with beans and ribs

First, soak the beans or legume mixture in cold water. After lying for half an hour or an hour in cold water, the beans will cook faster.

Meanwhile, put the washed ribs in a saucepan with cold water, cutting them into portions. Bring to a boil, salt the first water and add new water.

Boil the ribs for 20-30 minutes with a slight boil under the lid, and add the beans to the pan along with the water in which we soaked them. Cook for another half hour, and while the meat and beans are boiling, prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Finely chop the onion and fry in sunflower oil - not until golden brown, but until lightly transparent.

Add the grated carrots and fry for another 2-3 minutes, until soft.

Peel the potatoes, wash and cut into cubes.

Now pour the carrot and onion frying and potatoes into a saucepan to the beans and ribs.

Salt, mix and cook the whole "company" together for about 15 minutes, until all the products are soft.

Then add pepper, bay leaf and turn off after two minutes.

Delicious bean soup with ribs is ready. Bon Appetit!
