Fremgangsmåde

Trin for trin

1
Drain the soaked red kidney beans and rinse them thoroughly.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Soaking beans overnight greatly reduces cooking time and improves digestibility.
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Ca. 1 min.
3
Add the diced smoked bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
Ca. 7 min.
Kokkens note: The rendered bacon fat adds a lot of flavor to the soup base.
4
Add the pork shoulder to the pot and brown on all sides for about 8-10 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside with the bacon.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Browning the meat creates a deeper flavor profile for the soup.
5
Add the chopped yellow onion to the pot and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Ca. 5 min.
6
Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Ca. 1 min.
7
Return the browned pork shoulder to the pot. Add the chorizo, smoked pork sausage, rinsed red kidney beans, bay leaf, water, salt, and black pepper.
Ca. 2 min.
8
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60 minutes, or until the pork is tender and the beans are nearly cooked.
Ca. 1 t.
Kokkens note: Ensure the heat is low enough to maintain a gentle simmer, not a rolling boil.
9
Stir in the cubed potatoes and sliced carrots. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Ca. 25 min.
Kokkens note: Add a little more water if the soup becomes too thick during cooking.
10
Add the shredded collard greens and cooked bacon to the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes more, or until the collard greens are wilted and tender-crisp.
Ca. 7 min.
Kokkens note: Don't overcook the greens; they should still have a bit of bite.
11
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Ca. 1 min.
12
Remove the bay leaf before serving.
