Time 47m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large onion
1 pound green beans (cut into 1 inch pieces)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon corn starch
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon sweet Hungarian paprika (more or less to taste)
2 cups vegetable broth

Steps:

  • Chop the onion into small cubes and set aside.
  • Wash the green beans, trim off the ends and cut the beans into 1 inch long pieces. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large pot and add the onions. Sauté the onions on medium heat until they become translucent.
  • Add the green beans to the pot, then add 2 cups of broth. The mixture of onions and beans should just be covered.
  • Add the paprika, reduce the heat, and let everything simmer for around 30 minutes (or until the beans are tender - but not mushy).
  • Add the sour cream, milk, and corn starch together in a bowl and whisk well.
  • Add the corn starch mixture to the pot and mix everything well.
  • Bring the soup back to a boil for around 2 minutes or until it has reached the desired thickness. Stir frequently.
  • Serve and enjoy!

HUNGARIAN GREEN BEAN AND POTATO SOUP



Hungarian Green Bean and Potato Soup image

A Crescent Dragonwagon recipe, a delicious sweet and sour soup, don't omit a thing, as all the flavors meld into an incredible dish. Cutting the beans into very thin diagonal slices is important; if you have a food processor, stand them up in the feed tube and use the slicing disk. Make sure your paprika is fresh for best flavor. For a much richer version, use up to a cup of creme fraiche or sour cream instead of the Yogurt. Creme fraiche will not require the cornstarch mixture as a stabilizer. I like to add a bit of Spanish smoked paprika, but it isn't necessary. A full-flavored stock is essential. I streamline her directions when I make this by sauteeing the onion, celery, and garlic in the soup pot, then adding the other ingredients and cooking it. I see no reason to clean two pans if I can clean just one!

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

cooking spray
12 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into quarter-inch slices
4 small potatoes, diced
6 cups chicken stock or 6 cups vegetable stock
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
3 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2-1 teaspoon caraway seed
salt, to taste
pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, diced
2 celery ribs, diced (use leaves, too)
2 tablespoons sweet Hungarian paprika
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
3/4 cup plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Spray a large soup pot with cooking spray, put in it the beans, potatoes, stock, vinegar, honey, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a ten-inch skillet. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the celery, saute another 2 to 3 minutes. Lower the heat slightly, and sprinkle the vegetables with the paprika. Let the mixture cook a minute, stirring constantly. Scrape the sauteed vegetables into the soup pot. Add a little soup liquid to the skillet and deglaze it, then scrape the pan contents into the soup pot. Remove the soup pot from the heat.
  • When ready to serve, have the soup good and hot. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and mix it to make a smooth paste, using your fingers if necessary. Stir this paste into the yogurt. Whisk a ladle of the hot bean stock into the yogurt-cornstarch mixture. Turn down the heat under the soup as low as possible, and stir the cornstarch-stabilized yogurt into the very hot soup.Using a wooden spoon, stir gently until the soup has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings (including honey and vinegar), if necessary, and to be sure there is no raw cornstarch taste. Serve hot with a rustic bread.
