Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound beef short ribs
  • 8 cups water cold
  • bay leaf bouquet garni, 2 bay leaves, parsley, large pinch of dried thyme
  • parsley
  • thyme
  • 2 onion peeled, medium
  • 2 carrot halved
  • ¼ pound green beans small
  • 4 ribs celery chopped
  • 14.5 ounces tomato drained, canned, whole
  • ¼ green bell pepper chopped, large
  • ¾ pound okra fresh or frozen, sliced
  • cup long grain white rice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 1 tomato diced (for garnish, fresh

Instructions

  1. Place the short ribs in a large soup pot or dutch oven. Add the water and bring to a boil. After boiling for several minutes, skim off any scum that rises to the top.
  2. Add the bouquet garni, onions, and carrots. Cook at a simmer, uncovered, until the meat is tender – approximately 1 1/2 hours.
  3. Add the beans, celery, tomatoes, and bell pepper. Continue cooking for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove the meat and set it aside. Discard the bouquet garni, carrots, and onions. Add the okra and rice and continue to simmer until the rice is cooked – approximately 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. When cool enough to handle, remove the meat from the bones and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Serve soup with some of the meat and a garnish of finely diced fresh tomatoes.
