The instruction how to make Black bean soup with tortilla chips and pickled red onions
- To make tortilla chips, heat sunflower oil in a saucepan over medium heat until 190u00b0C (a cube of bread will turn golden in 30 seconds when oil is hot enough). In batches, fry tortillas for 1-2 minutes until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towel.
- Combine half the lime juice, one-quarter of the onion and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl, then stand for 30 minutes to pickle. Drain.
- Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook leek, garlic and remaining onion, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add spices, oregano, beans and stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15 minutes. Cool slightly, then whiz in a blender until smooth. Return to pan and gently reheat, adding a little water if soup is too thick. Season, then serve with tortilla chips, pickled onion, avocado, coriander and sour cream.
