👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil or lard over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
2
Add the chopped carrots and parsnip to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3
Stir in the minced garlic, sweet paprika, and hot paprika (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the paprika.
4
Add the tomato paste and cook for another minute, stirring to combine.
5
Add the drained soaked beans, smoked pork ribs, and bay leaves to the pot. Stir everything to coat.
6
Pour in enough water or vegetable broth to generously cover the ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer gently for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beans are very tender and the pork ribs are falling off the bone. Stir occasionally and add more liquid if needed to keep the beans submerged.
7
Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
8
Serve hot, ensuring each portion gets a good amount of beans and ribs. It's often served with a side of crusty bread.

For a vegetarian version, omit the pork ribs and use vegetable broth. Consider adding smoked tofu or mushrooms for extra flavor.
Add a chopped bell pepper along with the other vegetables for added sweetness and color.
A splash of red wine vinegar or a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar can be added in the last 30 minutes of cooking for a touch of acidity.
