Great for fall! If you have a leftover ham bone and a couple of kitchen basics, this soup is easy to prepare and serve. Nothing fancy to it!
Ingredients
- 6 cups water, or as needed
- 3 cubes beef bouillon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (10 ounce) meaty ham bone
- 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed, or more to taste
- 2 small onions, roughly chopped
- 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
Directions
Step 1
Fill a large soup pot with enough water to cover the ham bone, but don't add the bone yet. Bring to a boil.
Step 2
When boiling, add bouillon cubes and salt. Crush bouillon with a spoon until dissolved, then add ham bone, potatoes, onions, kidney beans, turmeric, and cloves. Stir to blend spices and return to a boil.
Step 3
Lower to medium-low heat and simmer until ham is hot and potatoes are easily pierced by a fork, about 1 hour.
Step 4
Remove ham bone. Shred meat and discard bone. Return meat to the soup, and serve.
Cook’s Note:
I usually chop the potatoes and onions while I wait for the water to boil. And once everything is in the pot you can do other stuff, like put up laundry, or quickly whip up some biscuits to go with the soup!
