Latin Split Pea Soup with Chipotle Chile and Corn Chips

 

Recipe By :Arthritis Cure Cookbook by Adderly and De Angelis

Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Soups And Stews

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups split peas -- sorted and washed

4 cups vegetable stock

or water

1 bay leaf

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 dry chipotle chile -- or

2 teaspoons chile powder (as substitute)

2 stalks celery -- quartered (2-3)

2 carrots -- trimmed and quartered

2 cloves garlic -- peeled

1 onion -- peeled and quartered

1 teaspoons salt -- or more

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

or unsalted butter

Baked corn chips

 

In a large stock pot, over high heat, add the peas, stock, bay leaf, and thyme.

Bring to a boil, covered. Reduce heat to low, and cook until the peas begin to

fall apart, about 60 minutes. Stir occasionally.

 

If using dried chipotle, soak it in water for 15 minutes. Remove the stem and

seeds, and discard them along with the soaking water.

 

Using a blender or food processor, pulse mince the celery, carrots, garlic,

onion, and chipotle.

 

Add the vegetables, salt, and pepper to the simmering soup. Cook another 15

minutes, covered, or until carrots are tender.

 

Using tongs, remove bay leaf and discard. Add oil or butter.

 

For a creamier soup, puree the soup in a blender or food processor, in small

batches. As each batch is pureed, pour it into a soup tureen. Adjust consistency

with additional stock or water, if a thinner soup is preferred.

 

Serve in a mug or bowl with a side of corn chips.

 

BAKED CORN CHIPS: Place corn tortillas on a baking sheet, and bake at 325F

until crispy, about 15 minutes. Break them apart and serve. [Partially

hydrogenated oils can increase arthritic inflammation; we recommend the baked

ones.]

 

COMMENT: Printed recipe suggested cooking the beans with a meaty ham bone.
