Spicy Black and Red Bean Soup
This robust soup is a favourite for its deep, comforting flavours and simple preparation. It combines black beans and kidney beans with sweet corn, carrots, and tomatoes, all simmered slowly with aromatic onions and garlic. A touch of green chillies adds a gentle warmth. Ideal for making a large batch to enjoy over several days, it's a complete and satisfying meal on its own.
