This hamburger soup recipe is a family favorite. It is requested several times a year, especially on cool, rainy days around here. I make my recipe in the instant pot but you could also use the stove top or a slow cooker to make it. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
2 teaspoons of oil
1/2 cup of diced onions
1 lb of ground chuck
2 cloves of garlic, diced finely
2 tablespoons of tomato paste
1 quart of diced tomatoes (I use homecanned tomatoes but you can also use store bought)
1 quart of beef broth
3 cups of potatoes, diced
2 carrots, diced
salt and pepper to taste
Place the instant pot on the saute function and add the oil when it gets hot. Now add the onions and ground chuck and cook it until the beef is browned through. Carefully drain the grease and return this to the pot.
Add the garlic and turn the saute function off. You do not want to burn the garlic.
Add the potatoes, carrots, tomato paste, tomatoes, beef broth, salt and pepper and stir until this is mixed together.
Place the lid on the instant pot and press the manual setting and cook for 10 minutes. I let mine do a slow release at least 10 minutes before I release the pressure.
