Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Sauté the Vegetables

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables become soft.

2

Add Garlic and Spices

Stir in the minced garlic, cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.

3

Combine with Broth and Beans

Add the black beans and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.

4

Blend the Soup

Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunky texture, blend only half of the soup and leave some beans whole.

5

Finish with Lime Juice

Stir in the lime juice and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

6

Serve

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
