Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to cook soup with canned red beans? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can add the onion whole during cooking or cut it into cubes and fry it along with carrots and potatoes (step 9). Zucchini can be replaced with zucchini. Just choose young zucchini with whole and tender skin so that you don’t have to cut it off — during the process of frying and cooking, zucchini without skin can boil into porridge, but you want the pieces to remain intact.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the tomatoes in water, make cross cuts on each one, scald with boiling water and leave for 2-3 minutes. Then remove the skins from the tomatoes.

Step 3

Step 3
Cut the tomatoes into medium cubes. Instead of fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, chopped in their own juice.

Step 4

Step 4
Rinse the zucchini thoroughly in running water, trim the tip, dry and cut into medium cubes.

Step 5

Step 5
Wash the potatoes in running water with a brush, dry, rinse and cut into small cubes.

Step 6

Step 6
Wash the carrots with a brush in running water, peel, rinse and dry. If the carrots are small in diameter, cut them into quarters. It is better to cut large carrots into medium-sized cubes. In general, all vegetables should not be chopped coarsely (otherwise the soup will be uncomfortable to eat), but not finely chopped (otherwise the vegetables will boil too much and you will end up with an unplanned puree soup).
