Categories     weekday, soups and stews, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2/3 cup Basmati rice
1 1/4 cups water
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1 10-ounce package frozen cut okra
3 cups chicken broth
1 15-ounce can hominy, drained and rinsed
1 large jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3 teaspoons cumin seeds, crushed
1/2 pork tenderloin, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Combine the rice, water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the okra according to the package directions.
  • Place the chicken broth in a large saucepan over medium heat. When hot, stir in the rice, okra, hominy, jalapeno, 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Lower heat.
  • Combine the cumin seeds, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Flatten the pork slices with the palm of your hand and coat each slice on both sides with the spice mixture. Brush a medium-size nonstick skillet with the olive oil and place over medium-high heat. When hot, add the pork and cook just until cooked through, about 45 seconds per side. Remove pork from the pan and julienne it.
  • Divide the soup among 4 bowls. Top with the pork and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.

I'm not a fan of okra, but I really enjoyed this soup. The okra was cooked perfectly and it didn't have any of the slimy texture that I usually associate with it.

I found this soup to be a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with less cayenne pepper.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much water.
