Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 pound rump roast, cut into small cubes

  • 2 onions, chopped

  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 2 tablespoons chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander

  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 3 ½ cups beef stock

  • ½ (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce

  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers

  • 3 ounces tomato paste

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, drained

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over high heat; saute rump roast until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add onions and garlic; saute until onions are softened, 4 to 5 minutes.

  2. Stir chili powder, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, and bay leaves into meat and vegetables; cook and stir until meat and vegetables are coated in seasonings, about 2 minutes. Add beef stock, enchilada sauce, green chile peppers, and tomato paste; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover pot, and simmer until meat is tender, about 50 minutes.

  3. Stir pinto beans into soup, mashing beans to thicken if desired; simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

This recipe is flavorful, but not hot. Increase cayenne pepper amount to add heat.

I double the recipe and freeze half for camping or easy dinner for company.
