Portuguese bean soup which is quite an easy, healthy, filling and fantastic soup with plenty of veggies and beans..This portuguese bean soup is one of the local favourite and this soup tastes incredible when its cold or rainy days..Its seems each and everyone had their own personnal interpretation of this dish and traditionally this dish is mainly prepared with tomato base ingredients and gets its rich flavour from smoked ham hocks which i completely omitted in this recipe and prepared with plenty of veggies like carrots, potatoes, cabbages, celery ,diced tomatoes cooked with tomato paste and herbs with tinned red kidney beans..We enjoyed having this fantastic, filling and hearty soup for our dinner yesterday and we loved it...These soup goes directly to AWED-Portuguese which am hosting,the event started by DK..
