Recipe Summary Venus De Milo Soup

This my version of a popular soup served at a well-known banquet facility in southeastern Massachusetts. It is simple to prepare using common ingredients you may already have on hand in your pantry and freezer. Feel free to vary the basic recipe with in-season fresh veggies and low-fat turkey or veggie-soy burger for the ground beef.

Ingredients | Ciorba Cu Perisoare De Porc

1 pound ground beef

1 small onion, minced

1 teaspoon minced garlic

½ (6 ounce) can tomato paste

1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

1 envelope onion soup mix

2 beef bouillon cubes

1 bay leaf

1 (16 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables

2 quarts water

⅔ cup orzo pasta

salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Cook the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain as much fat from the beef as possible. Add the onion and garlic to the beef; cook and stir until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, onion soup mix, beef bouillon cubes, bay leaf, mixed vegetables, and water to the ground beef mixture. Raise heat to medium-high, and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir the orzo pasta into the boiling liquid; cook until the orzo is tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to serve.

If you plan on using a slow cooker to prepare in advance, or you are not serving right away, you may want to cook orzo separately, adding to soup just prior to serving to prevent pasta from getting too soft.
