Baby its cold on the Bayou Beef Bone with Leek Soup for my East Coast hubby: Ingredients: 2 lbs. beef (chuck steak or shank) cut in bite-sized cubes with bone in 1 can petite diced tomatoes 1 1/2 cup corn 1 cup peas 3 carrots chopped 4 potatoes diced few sprigs parsley 1 1/2 large leek chopped 3 roma tomatoes diced 2 cups celery chopped fine (and use some of the celery leaf chopped) 1 large onion chopped 1/2 red bell pepper chopped 1/4 cup of finely diced fresh jalepeno pepper olive oil 1 cup Emerils organic beef broth 1 Knorr Homestyle beef stock-in the cute little cups in a gelatin-like stock 2 shots of red wine (for the soup - but you have some too, cher!) Seasonings---season to your delight, cher: Richards cajun seasoning paprika celery salt garlic salt Goya Sazonador Total seasoning onion powder dried red pepper flakes black pepper garnish with dried parsley and red pepper fakes Heat large pot with olive oil to cover bottom about 1/4 inch high. Add cubed beef and beef bones (use any beef you may have that has a bone and some fat). Season meat while you sauté over high heat. Cook until browned in pot and then remove and set aside. Add all the wonderful vegetables (except roma tomatoes and canned tomatoes) to the pot now without removing the oil and meat fat. Cook on medium-high heat until all the veggies begin to slightly brown and soften. Season to your delight as you go. I covered the pot and let them cook about 30 minutes. Now Drain the oil from the pot and use some good oven mits when you do. Leave a little bit of oil in the pot for flavor. Now add the beef AND the bones back to the soup. Now you can add your fresh roma tomatoes and the can of tomatoes! Then use the empty tomato can and add about 2 cans of water and add to the soup. Then add your Knorrs gelatin-like beef stock and Emerils organic beef broth. Add the wine, too, now and make sure you have a sip! Stir well and season some more! Cook on medium-high (a gentle boil) for about 1 hour until all the goodness of the Beef and the garden come together for a delicious and mouth watering soup and serve with warm and buttered french bread. My East Coast hubby gave me a big hug and kiss when I served him this dish tonight! Enjoy!
