Provided by Pilly

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb Dried white Beans (navy or cannellini)
2 onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 bay leaves
2 tb Chopped parsley
2 tb tomato paste
1 lg carrot, scraped and sliced
5 To 6 whole peppercorns
1 lb Kielbasa, thickly sliced
1/2 tb salt
2 tb olive oil
1 ts paprika
2 tb flour

Steps:

*You will need a large saucepan. Pick over the Beans for bits of grit and chaff, and rinse them twice in cold water. Put the Beans in a large saucepan and cover them with water to a depth of 1 to 2 inches. *Bring the water to a boil and then turn down the heat.Leave to simmer gently for half an hour. *Remove the pan from the heat and pour in enough cold water to cover the Beans to a depth of 3 inches. The Beans will settle on the bottom. Leave them for a minute or two; then pour off the water and replace with fresh water. Bring the water to a boil and then turn down the heat to simmer. *Add the onions, garlic, bay leaves, parsley, tomato paste, carrot, and peppercorns to the Beans. *Cook gently over very low heat for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the Beans are soft. After 45 minutes of the cooking, add the kielbasa. *Fifteen minutes before you are ready to serve, add the salt and prepare a liaison for the soup. *Heat the oil until it is smoking lightly; then quickly stir in the paprika, followed by the flour. Mix to a thin paste. *Add this to the soup, stirring well. Simmer for 5 minutes, until the soup is thick and rich.
