Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 large ripe but firm avocados
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
2 heaping tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 large clove garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 serrano or jalapeño chile, seeds removed for less heat if desired, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon toasted and ground cumin seeds
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Kosher or sea salt
For the salsa:
1 large plum (Roma) tomato, halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup finely minced white onion
2 heaping tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/2 serrano or jalapeño chile, seeds removed for less heat if desired, finely minced
1 small clove garlic, finely minced
Kosher or sea salt
Freshly squeezed lime juice

Steps:

  • Halve and pit the avocados. Set aside half an avocado for the salsa. Put the remaining avocado flesh in a blender with the buttermilk, yogurt, cilantro, garlic, chile, and cumin. Blend until smooth. Taste and add more chile if desired, and then blend again. Transfer to a bowl and stir in enough cold water to thin the soup to a pleasing consistency, about 1/2 cup. Stir in the lime juice, or more to taste, and season with salt. Chill thoroughly.
  • Just before serving, prepare the salsa: In a bowl, stir together the tomato, onion, cilantro, chile, and garlic. Cut the reserved avocado half into 1/4-inch dice and fold it in gently, and then season to taste with salt and lime juice and stir again gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
  • If the soup has thickened in the refrigerator, whisk in ice water to thin it to the desired consistency. Taste for seasoning. Divide among 6 bowls. Top each serving with a spoonful of salsa and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados for a creamy and flavorful soup. Look for avocados that are dark green and slightly soft to the touch.
  • Use a food processor or high-powered blender to create a smooth and velvety soup. If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the avocados by hand, but it will take a bit more time and effort.
  • Add some heat to the soup with diced jalapeños or chili peppers. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chipotle powder for a smoky flavor.
  • Garnish the soup with your favorite toppings, such as chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, or crumbled queso fresco. You can also serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.

Conclusion:

Avocado soup is a delicious, creamy, and refreshing soup that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, this soup is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give avocado soup a try.
