Drain the black beans and dice the onion and pepper small so the measurements stay steady.
Cook the onion and pepper over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Add the beans and water.
Boil the soup for 18 minutes.
Mash some of the beans to create a thick Cuban-style body.
Serve hot with lime and cilantro.
💡 Tip: Mashing some of the beans gives the soup body without adding cream.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with white rice, lime, and fresh cilantro.
