Roasted Cream of Poblano Soup image

I was inspired by Lynnda Cloutier's Cream of Poblano Soup, but didn't want to use a slow cooker, and didn't have dill,so I fiddled around and this turned out! It 's mouth hot, but not burny, and we really thought the taste was lovely. If you like this recipe, see my website: http://mybestcookbook.wordpress.com

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 large poblano chiles
2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
1 medium onion, chopped roughly
4-6 clove garlic, smashed
2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh and chopped roughly
2 c beef stock
1 c water
2/3 c cream
cotija cheese, crumbled, for topping

Steps:

  • 1. Place the peppers under the broiler until they begin to char, turn over and do the same to the other side. Remove to a paper bag and leave until cooled. Then peel the skins off, remove the stems and seeds, and cut into chunks. Place in the soup pot.
  • 2. Add all the rest of the ingredients except the cream and the cheese. Simmer for 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
  • 3. Remove the solids from the pot and place in a blender or food processor, and puree until smooth. Return to the soup pot and simmer for another 30 minutes.
  • 4. Let sit covered until 30 minutes before eating, and stir in the cream, and heat gently. Serve the crumbed cotija on the side at the table.
