When I was young, we ate a lot of pork and chicken. I suppose it was less expensive than beef. I've eaten many bowls of this hearty filling soup while sitting at my grandma's table. Ingredients:
1 lb pork loin, cut into 1/2 inch cubes |
1 tablespoon oil |
1 cup carrot, thinly sliced |
1 cup diced celery |
1 cup cubed peeled potato |
1 (8 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
4 cups hot water |
3 beef bouillon cubes |
1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, cut up |
1/2 teaspoon oregano leaves, crushed |
1 (10 ounce) package sliced frozen okra (optional) |
1 dash hot pepper sauce |
Directions:
1. Add oil to dutch oven and heat over medium heat. When oil is heated, add pork and brown. Add carrots, celery and potatoes. Cook 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients except okra. Cover and simmer 1 hour, stirring often. 2. Add okra and cook 15 additional minutes. 3. Serve with crackers or cornbread. |
