Doug Cooper's Polynesian Black Bean Soup

Boil beans in beef and chicken stocks until tender. Meanwhile, saute meat, onion and garlic.

Add diced tomatoes and juice after meat is cooked. Reduce this mixture to a paste. When beans are tender, remove 2/3 of beans and purée.

Combine pureed meat and bean purée. Put back into pot with beans.

Let simmer. Will thicken.

Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley.
