Pepper Pot Soup

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 pound beef stew meat, cut into cubes
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
  • 1 medium bell pepper, chopped
  • 1-2 Scotch bonnet peppers, whole (for spice)
  • 2 cups diced potatoes
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup okra, sliced (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for an additional minute until fragrant.
  2. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the beef stew meat. Sear the meat until browned on all sides.
  3. Pour in the beef broth and add the diced tomatoes, chopped bell pepper, and whole Scotch bonnet peppers. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the diced potatoes, chopped carrots, and okra (if using). Stir in the fresh thyme, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Cover and let the soup simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the meat to become tender. Stir occasionally, and add more broth or water if necessary.
  6. Taste the soup before serving; adjust seasoning if needed. If you like a bit of acidity, stir in a tablespoon of vinegar just before serving.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your hearty bowl of Pepper Pot Soup!
