Ingredients

4 servings
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 medium yellow onions, (roughly chopped)
  • 4 large cloves garlic, (crushed and peeled)
  • 2 carrots, (peeled and roughly chopped)
  • 2 (15-oz) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 3 cups chicken broth ((or vegetable broth))
  • 3 tablespoons cornmeal
  • ¾ teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1¾ teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Scant ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, (from 1 lime)
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • Handful chopped fresh cilantro

Steps

  1. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large soup pan. Add the onions, garlic cloves and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent, about 8 minutes. Do not brown.

  2. Add the black beans, chicken broth, cornmeal, oregano, coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently for about 15 minutes.

  3. Purée the soup using a hand-held immersion blender until very smooth and creamy. (Alternatively, you can use a standard blender to puree the soup in batches; see note.) Stir in the lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each bowl with a dollop of sour cream and freshly chopped cilantro.
