Spring is just around the corner, but those chilly evenings aren’t gone just yet. 🥣
Make the most of those cooler nights with a warm bowl of homemade vegetable soup, made even easier with Miami!
Hearty Beef & Vegetable Soup 🥕
The perfect comfort food for a cold day! Rich, hearty and packed with tender beef and vegetables.
Ingredients:
- 1 kg beef shin (about 4 large pieces)
- 2 potatoes
- 2 carrots
- 1 celery stalk + leaves
- 1 turnip (optional)
- 1 can Miami Italian Style Tomatoes
- 1 onion
- 1 litre beef stock/chicken stock
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Hot water as needed
- A little oil for frying
Method:
1. Set your pressure cooker to sauté and fry the onion until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
2. Brown the beef shin well on both sides.
3. Return the onion to the pot and add the Miami Italian Style Tomatoes.
4. Pour in 1 litre of beef stock.
5. Close the pressure cooker and cook on high pressure for 40 - 45 minutes. Allow a 15-minute natural pressure release, then release the remaining pressure.
6. Meanwhile, grate the potatoes, carrots, celery and turnip.
7. Remove the beef from the pot. Take the meat off the bones, discard any tough or chewy pieces, and finely chop or shred the meat.
8. Return the shredded beef to the pot and add all the grated vegetables.
9. Add enough hot water to cover everything, making sure not to exceed your pressure cooker's maximum fill line.
10. Cook again on high pressure for 5 - 8 minutes, followed by about a 10-minute natural pressure release.
11. Stir well and season with salt and pepper. For an even thicker, richer soup, simmer uncovered for another 10 - 20 minutes.
🥖 Serve hot with fresh bread and butter.
Tip: Keep the beef shin bones in during the first pressure cook - they add loads of flavour and help create that rich, hearty broth.
Simple, comforting and just right for dinner.
