1. In a large pot add all the ingredients up to the tomato paste/ketchup. 2. Give a good stir. 3. Now add water to JUST cover and bring to a hard boil-turn down to a simmer, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring every so often. 4. Add hash browns, stir and in 5 minutes taste. 5. Add garlic, salt, pepper or basil if needed. 6. For Chili bean beef soup omit peas, barley, frozen corn (use canned sliced baby corn), 2 packages of the beef boullion, basil (offer red pepper flakes at the table). 7. Don't bring to a hard boil, bring to an almost boil, reduce and simmer, follow the original recipe now-stirring gently so you dont mash the beans. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
