Introduction

This was originally supposed to be a classic beef stew, but I didn't have vegetable juice so I substituted red pepper tomato soup. I also played around with the spices a bit, using soyaki sauce instead of worcestershire sauce and adding ginger and paprika. It came out delicious, hearty and complex. Goes great with a warm biscuit! This was originally supposed to be a classic beef stew, but I didn't have vegetable juice so I substituted red pepper tomato soup.

Ingredients

    10 oz beef stew meat, cubed
    2 tbsp all purpose flour
    1 medium onion
    3 cups tomato/red pepper soup (Trader Joe's)
    2 cups water
    1 tbsp Trader Joe's soyaki sauce
    1 tsp oregano
    1 bay leaf
    1/2 tsp ground ginger
    1/2 tsp paprika
    1/2 tsp black pepper
    2 small zucchini
    3 red potatoes
    3 medium carrots
    1 cup frozen corn
    1 cup chopped red cabbage

Directions

Toss beef in flour to coat while heating 2 tbsp olive oil in a sauté pan. When oil is hot, brown beef cubes in oil until well colored and juicy looking. Remove from burner and set aside on a burner on warm.

Cut onion into wedges. In a large soup pot, sauté onion and garlic in 2 tbsp olive oil. Add 3 cups red pepper tomato soup and 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Add soyaki sauce and seasonings and stir, then turn heat down to simmer. Use a straining spoon to move beef from frying pan to soup pot (leaving oil behind). Stir, cover pot, and simmer for 60 minutes, adding 2nd cup of water and stirring after about 30 minutes.

While soup is simmering, cut zucchini, potatoes, carrots and cabbage into small chunks or 1/4 inch slices, depending on your preference. When soup has been simmering for 60 minutes, add chopped vegetables to soup and stir. Bring to a boil, stir, then turn heat down to simmer again and cover. Simmer for another 60 minutes or until beef and potatoes are tender. Discard bay leaf and ladle soup into bowls.

Makes about 9 1-cup servings.
