Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon extra-virgin oil
1 small onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 cup Marsala
6 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded, and diced
2 1/2 cups rich chicken stock or vegetable stock, or more as needed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Anaheim chiles, roasted, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 dried ancho chile, roasted and pulverized
2 avocados, cut into small dice
2 limes, juiced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the soup, heat the oil in a large saucepan over high heat until very hot. Add the onion and garlic and saute for about 2 minutes. Add the cumin and saute for 2 minutes longer. Add the Marsala and reduce until about 1/2 cup remains, about 4 minutes. Add the peppers and stock, decrease the heat to medium, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add the cilantro and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Carefully puree the soup in a blender. Transfer the soup to a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate until well chilled, about 2 hours. (If the soup is too thick after chilling, thin it down with a bit more stock.)
  • Meanwhile, to prepare the salsa, combine the onion, garlic, chiles, and avocados in a bowl, and mix well. Add the lime juice, mix well, and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
  • To serve, ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with the salsa, creme fraiche, and a cilantro sprig.
