Hearty and delicious, this soup looks great with its dollop of sour cream on each serving. If you like, puree the soup before adding the coriander; just reserve about 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the whole beans to garnish each bowlful.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 sweet red pepper, chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1 can (19 oz/540 mL) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups vegetable stock or chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander, (optional)
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Preparation

In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, garlic, red pepper, cumin and cayenne, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until onion is softened.

Add black beans and stock; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in coriander (if using) and lime juice. Dollop sour cream on each serving.
