DIRECTIONS
- 1. Using a large Sauce Pot or Dutch Oven, begin by adding a little oil to the pot and begin sweating the onions, carrots and celery. As they become soft and translucent add the cumin.
- 2. *Chipotle chili are spicy. I love the heat from these chilies as they also provide a hint of smoke to the flavor. For this recipe, use 2 chili and 1 Tablespoon of the adobo sauce. Three chilies for the brave palette.
- 3. Stir the ingredients and add all the tomato. Feel free to use fresh, leftover tomato if desired. Simmer for about 30 minutes.
- 4. Add the fresh herb.
- 5. Transfer to a blender.
- Add in batches and drizzle the olive oil while blending. If the soup seems to thick for your liking, add about a 1/2 cup of water or vegetable broth to thin in it out to your preference.
- Pass through a fine mesh strainer. Season to taste
