Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 white onion diced
  • 1 red pepper diced
  • 1 green pepper diced
  • ½ pickled jalapenos diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoon chipotle paste
  • 1.5 teaspoon taco/enchilada seasoning mix
  • 400 g canned chopped tomatoes
  • 500 ml vegetable stock
  • 125 ml heavy cream or cream cheese
  • 100 g sweetcorn
  • 800 g tinned black beans drained and rinsed (two tins)
Toppings
  • 50 g cheddar cheese grated
  • 10 g Cilantro diced
  • 2 tablespoon Sour cream
  • 20 g fried tortilla chips
  • 1 avocado sliced or cubed

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan and add the onion, red pepper, green pepper, and jalapenos. Saute for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
    1 tbsp oil, 1 white onion, 1 red pepper, 1 green pepper, ½ pickled jalapenos, 3 garlic cloves
  2. Add the tomato paste, chipotle paste, and seasonings, and stir these into the vegetables to cook for another minute until the pastes turn fragrant.
    1 tbsp tomato paste, 2 tsp chipotle paste, 1.5 tsp taco/enchilada seasoning mix
  3. Add your diced tomatoes, vegetable stock, and about ⅓ of the beans (we’ll blend these later to get a really thick, creamy sauce). Leave the pot to simmer gently for 10 - 15 minutes.
    400 g canned chopped tomatoes, 500 ml vegetable stock, 268 g tinned black beans
  4. Use a hand blender to blend the soup ingredients together - if you want to leave it a little chunky, don’t blend until completely smooth.
  5. Stir the remaining black beans and the sweetcorn into the soup and cook for 5 minutes, then swirl through the cream.
    100 g sweetcorn, 532 g tinned black beans, 125 ml heavy cream or cream cheese
  6. Portion out your black bean enchilada soup into bowls and top with sour cream, diced cilantro, cheese, cubed avocado, and crunchy tortilla chips on top.
    50 g cheddar cheese , 10 g Cilantro, 2 tbsp Sour cream, 1 avocado, 20 g fried tortilla chips

Notes

This soup is mildly spicy due to the jalapenos and the chipotle paste used in the soup. If you want it less spicy, reduce the quantity of these ingredients and add more cream or sour cream.
