Ingredients
6 tablespoons olive oil
3 cups finely chopped yellow onions
2 cups chopped peeled carrots
6 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
7 cups Beef Stock
1/2 cup uncooked rice (not converted or instant)
1/2 cup medium-dry sherry wine
2 red and 2 green peppers, stemmed, cored and cut into julienne
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a soup pot.
Add onions, carrots and garlic and cook, covered, over low heat until vegetables are tender and lightly colored, about 25 minutes; stir occasionally.
Uncover, add beef stock, raise the heat, and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
Pour the soup through a strainer, pressing hard with the back of a spoon to extract as much flavor as possible.
Discard the solids and return the broth to the pot.
