This is one of my all time favorites. The perfect winter dish to make you feel like you're eating sun and southern latitudes. It also makes for a great dip when its cold.
Ingredients: About 3 cups cooked black beans 1tbs. olive oil 3 cups chopped onion 10 medium cloves garlic, crushed 2 tsp. cumin 2-2.5 tsp salt 1 medium carrot, diced 1 medium bell pepper, also diced 1,2 cups orange juice, diced ;) black pepper, to taste cayenne, to taste 2 medium tomatoes, diced (optional) ( the tomatoes, not the dicing. I've tried both with and without tomatoes and it's delicious either way)
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet. Add onion, half the garlic, cumin, salt, and carrot. Saute over medium heat until the carrot is just tender. Add remaining garlic and the bell pepper. Saute until everything is very tender ('bout 10-15 minutes more). Add the saute mixture to the big pot of beans.
Stir in the OJ, black pepper, cayenne and optional tomatoes. Puree the soup. I recommend a mixer staff. They're great. Just don't stick your fingers in it. I did it once while making Humus in Spain and nearly cut my finger off. Simmer over low heat for another 10 to 15 minutes. Top with salsa, sour cream, cilantro, and tortilla chips.
Squeeze all the seeds and liquid out of the tomatoes. Chop. Mix. So good and fresh. You'll never want to eat the supermarket jar crap again. Source: Mollie Katzem The New Moosewood Cookbook
