Tomato, lime & tortilla soup

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Onions, chopped
4 eaches Garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
2 eaches Jalapeno chiles, minced
1 teaspoon Cumin
½ teaspoon Oregano
3½ cup Tomatoes, chopped
3 cups Stock
⅓ cup Lime juice
Salt, to taste
Tortilla chips, crumbled
Cilantro, chopped

Directions

In a soup pot, saute onions & garlic in oil until softened. Add the chiles, cumin & oregano & saute a few more minutes. Add tomatoes & sprinkle with a little salt. Cover the pot & cook gently until the tomatoes begin to release their juices. Stir occasionally. Add stock & simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Add lime juice & check the seasoning.

Serve topped with crumbled tortilla chips (I find that these are not necessary) & garnish with cilantro.
