Soup Base

Tortilla Chips

Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Tomatoes and Spices

    Add the diced tomatoes to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, until they begin to break down. Stir in the ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Soup

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Tortilla Chips Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Cut the corn tortillas into triangles. Heat 1 cup of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 5

    Fry the Chips

    Fry the tortilla triangles in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove them and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Serve the Soup

    Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Top each bowl with a generous amount of tortilla chips.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    Garnish with slices of avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
