Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Base Ingredients

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Vegetables

    Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrots, celery, and potatoes. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Tomatoes and Broth

    Add the diced tomatoes (with juice) and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Add Beans and Seasoning

    Stir in the drained kidney beans and black beans. Add the bay leaves, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together.

  2. 5

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  3. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Once the soup is done simmering, remove the bay leaves. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley before serving. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
