Ingredients to make Aztec Soup:
- 2 tomatoes
- 2 red chilies for stewing anchos (mulato) deveined
- 3 garlic cloves
- ½ onion
- 1 bar of grated Manchego cheese
- 1 avocado
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 chipotle peppers
- 1 jet of oil
- 8 Tortillas (cut into strips and fried)
- 1 branch of Epazote
- 8 cups of chicken broth
How to make Aztec Soup:
- To prepare the Aztec soup, place the tomatoes in a saucepan, cover them with water and let them boil. Cook over medium heat until the tomatoes are soft but not falling apart, 5 to 8 minutes. Blend them together with the onion and garlic. Strain them.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pot over medium heat and pour the previous mixture into it to continue with the preparation of the Mexican soup. Cook until seasoned and dry.
- Add the chicken broth, epazote and salt, and bring to a boil. When it reaches the boiling point, reduce the flame and simmer gently for 3 more minutes.
- While the previous point is developing and the Aztec soup is cooking, heat a tablespoon of oil in a small skillet over medium heat. She quickly browns the chilies but is careful not to burn them. Break them apart with your hands.
- Serve the Aztec soup hot and garnish with chili, fried corn tortilla strips, chopped avocado, or with an avocado, cheese and cream salad.
