Beef and Barley Soup
Ingredients
Method
- Prepare the vegetables: Dice the onion, celery and carrots; thinly slice the mushrooms; mince or press the garlic.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, garlic, and mushrooms, then sauté until they are tender, about 10 min. Season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, peel and dice the potatoes; dice the beef cubes into small pieces (about 1 cm).
- Add the barley, potatoes, and beef, then sauté 2 min with stirring. Pour in the broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer 50 min, or until the barley and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
- Adjust the seasoning, ladle the soup into bowls then serve.
Remarks
The soup keeps up to 7 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.

2014-01-31T20:29:49+00:00 january 31, 2014Perfect soup for a cold Canadian winter night! Loved the pearl barley. I added cheese tortellini and doubled the broth as well as adding vegetable broth to the mix. Definitely will be making this for my family again!

december 11, 2008 | I would make this recipe againLoved it! The barley really absorbs the broth, so you want to add additional broth. I made a big pot and froze the extra.

february 24, 2009 | I would make this recipe againWhat a great dish! The family really loved it ... but the barley really soaks up the broth so you will want to add a bit more. Will definately be making this again!
