Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat up a large pot over medium high heat. Add the olive oil, onion, garlic, and thyme. Sauté the onion until transparent.
-
Add the barley and stir. Begin adding the stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring until the barley has absorbed the liquid.
-
Add the remaining stock, cooking the barley over medium-low heat until the barely is tender – 40 mins or more. Cover and stir often.
-
Add the edamame and okra, and more water if necessary. Cook for another 5 mins.
Note
- Look for edamame (frozen soybeans) in health food stores and large supermarkets. They can be frozen and/or shelled.
- 2-3 bouillon vegetable cubes and water can be used as vegetable stock.
- For variation, make Pot O'Barley Soup by doubling the number of cups of vegetable stock.
