Description

I absolutely love this soup and can eat it over and over again. The broth is full of flavor and tons of aroma. You will want to soak up every drop with a some bread. The garbanzos are firm against the tender potatoes and you get just a hint of spice from the sausage. If you want to make it even heartier, drop a spoonful of rice in the soup.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ¼ cups Sofrito
  • 1 whole Andouille Sausage, Halfed And Sliced
  • ½ whole Large Onion, Diced
  • 3 whole Red Potato, Peeled, Halved And Sliced
  • 2 cans Garbanzo Beans, Not Drained
  • 1 quart Chicken Stock
  • 1 envelope Sazon Con Azafron (saffron)
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

Heat 1 Tbs of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat, add 4 cubes of sofrito (1/4 cup), cook until it breaks down, about 5 minutes.

Add sausage and onions, cook until onions are soft and translucent. Add potatoes and garbanzo beans (undrained), chicken stock and an envelope of Sazon con Azafran; stir.

Turn up the heat and bring to a boil, then turn heat down and simmer for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

Serve hot with bread and butter.

I finally was able to make this tonight. I kept waiting to make the sofrito and am so glad that I did. The soup was excellent. I doubled the batch, gave half to my in-laws and even my daughter who does not like beans (of any kind) ate it after church this evening. This recipe goes in my tasty book!

Made this soup for dinner a couple of weeks ago and it was to die for. The entire family enjoyed this and there were no leftovers. The sofrito needed was easy to make and I find that I use it in a lo of things now.

YUM! I live and know many spanish folks and they have this soup made with chorizo so that is what I know and love so I subbed that. This taste just like the soup you get in a spanish (latin) resturant which I just love. Thanks
