Shrove Tuesday soup with legumes – peas, lentils, or beans, and smoked pork shank.

Recipe:
Legumes – beans, lentils, peas, or chickpeas:
2 different smoked sausages, e.g., from Keerdo farm / Forevers counter:
Smoked ham, preferably bone-in, e.g., from the Karula meat industry counter:
Carrots:
Onion:
Garlic:
Tomato paste, to taste—if you love it, feel free to add more:
Bay leaf, from the Toominga farm counter:
Thyme:
Parsley:
Salt:
Crushed black pepper:
Smoked paprika or regular paprika if you don't have smoked

Instructions:

1. If you're using dried beans or (chick)peas, start by soaking them for 24 hours. Lentils cook quickly. Canned legumes also work wonderfully well.
2. Slice the meat and sausages.
3. Peel the carrots and onions, then grate or finely chop them.
4. Add some oil to a pot and sauté, then stir in the tomato paste, seasonings, and meat.
5. Add water and the legumes.
6. Simmer until the legumes are nice and tender 🙂
