  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 cups water

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the beef stew meat. Cook until browned on all sides, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
  • Stir in the pearl barley, diced tomatoes, beef broth, thyme, salt, pepper, and water.

  • Check that the barley is tender and the beef is cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before portioning.

merknader

Divide the cooled soup into freezer-safe containers, leaving a little space at the top since the barley will continue to absorb liquid. When reheating, add a splash of water or broth to loosen the texture. Skip the thyme if you prefer a milder flavor, or add an extra carrot for more natural sweetness.
