Make
- Heat a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add oil and then carrots, shallots and ginger. Cook until translucent and aromatic, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, coriander, thyme, red pepper flakes and some black pepper. Saute until spices are fragrant, 1 minute more.
- Add the bell peppers and tomato paste and stir to combine. Add sherry vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pan to free up any browned bits.
- Add stock and both types of beans and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes to let the flavors come together. Taste and season with lemon juice and some salt.
- Serve soup with a spoonful of yogurt stirred in at the table and crusty bread on the side. Enjoy!
