- 1 large onion, diced
- 10 large cloves garlic, minced
- 6 plum tomatoes, roasted and peeled
- 3 ancho peppers, stems and seeds removed, toasted and softened in water
- 2 ancho peppers, stems and seeds removed, cut into strips
- 4 cups cooked pinto beans, with a little of their broth if homemade
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 6 corn tortillas, cut into ¼ inch wide strips
- 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
- ¼ cup epazote (optional), chopped
10 Steps to complete
- 1Place softened anchos and roasted tomatoes in the blender. Blend well. Strain puree through sieve into a bowl, using a ladle to press through. Discard solids left in sieve.
- 2Rinse blender and pour chicken broth and beans in the blender. Blend well. And set aside.
- 3Preheat a large saucepan over medium heat for one minute. Add 2 Tbsp. of oil and heat for 1 minute. Add onions and cook, stirring for 5 minutes.
- 4Add garlic. Cook, stirring for 3 minutes more.
- 5Add tomato and chile puree. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 6Add bean and broth mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring often for 20 minutes to thicken the soup.
- 7Remove from heat. And add salt to taste. (About 2 tsp.)
- 8Meanwhile, place a sauté pan over medium high heat for one minute. Add vegetable oil to reach approximately 1/2 inch. When oil shimmers, or is 350°F, place the strips of tortillas in the oil and fry until crispy. Remove tortillas and place on paper towels to drain.
- 9Place ancho strips in the same oil and fry very briefly. (About 5 seconds, or until toasted) Remove from oil, and place on paper towels to drain.
- 10Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with queso fresco, crema, tortilla and ancho strips. (Chopped epazote garnish is optional.)
