Pea soup in the Panasonic cooker is cooked for a long time, but it turns out to be rich and very tasty. Today we will take a closer look at how to make such a simple and satisfying first course using fatty pork ribs.
How to cook pea soup in a slow cooker
Required components for the first course:
- fresh large carrots - 1 pc.;
- fatty pork ribs - 400 g;
- large onions - 2 pcs.;
- drinking water - for broth (1-2 l);
- half peas - 1 faceted full glass;
- bay leaf - a few pieces (optional);
- refined sunflower oil - 2 large spoons;
- small potato tubers - 3 pcs.;
- sea salt, red allspice, thyme, dried herbs - add to taste.
Processing meat ingredient and vegetables
Pea soup in the Panasonic cooker turns out to be delicious from any kind of meat. Such a dish becomes especially fragrant if any smoked products are used for its preparation. However, we decided to use only fatty pork ribs. They must be washed and cut into portioned parts along the bones. Also, delicious pea soup in a slow cooker is prepared with the obligatory use of the following vegetables: carrots, potatoes and onions. All of these components must be cleaned and finely chopped.
Bean Ingredient Preparation
Pea soup in the Panasonic cooker can be prepared both from a whole bean product and from chopped one. We decided to apply the second option, since it takes much less time to boil half peas. It is worth noting that this product must be sorted out in advance, washed well in a colander and soaked in ordinary drinking water (preferably all night). Such a simple procedure will allow the peas to swell, so the cooking time in the kitchen device will be significantly reduced.
Frying vegetables and meat products
To make pea soup in the Panasonic cooker especially aromatic, it is recommended to fry pork ribs, carrots and onion heads in advance using the Baking program. Thus, all of these components should be put in a bowl, and then flavored with oil, salt and red pepper. It is required to cook these ingredients within 10-13 minutes, until a golden crust forms on their surface.
Heat treatment of the whole dish
After a short frying of meat and vegetables, half peas should be added to them, add lavrushka, thyme, dried herbs and a little more salt. Next, it is necessary to pour drinking water into the container and install the “Stewing” program for 1 hour. After this time, the broth with peas must be mixed, add chopped potatoes to it and continue stewing (another 60 minutes).
How to serve the first course for dinner
Pea soup is served for dinner only in a hot condition. Such a first dish should be served with chopped fresh parsley, dill and leek, as well as independently made wheat or rye croutons and thick sour cream. Enjoy your meal!
