Sopa de fideo is a quick and comforting Mexican staple that is particularly good on a chilly weeknight. The acidity from tomatoes, the bold garlic flavor and the luscious strands of fideo, a thin noodle similar to angel hair that's typically included in Mexican soups, make for a hearty dish. Toppings for sopa de fideo vary, but common garnishes include avocado slices, sautéed mushrooms, lime juice, queso fresco, cooked potatoes, Mexican cream - the list goes on!

MEXICAN SOPA DE FIDEOS (VERMICELLI MEXICAN STYLE)



Mexican Sopa de Fideos (Vermicelli Mexican Style) image

This side dish was always a favorite at my grandmother's house. when ever she did not want to make rice or potatos this was the dish. She would serve with pinto beans and a grilled meat and Oh so good. Somtimes we would just grab two tabelspoonfuls and drop & wrap in a soft flour tortilla with a few beans and some salsa on top....

Categories     Pasta Sides

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pkg vermicelli mexican fideos (a very fine dry pasta)
1/4 c olive oil, light
1 medium vidalia onion or white onion diced small
2 clove fresh garlic mashed or put through a garlic press
1 can(s) whole tomatos in a can mashed down, not the real large can. i use hunt's
1 tsp fresh cilantro diced fine
1 1/2 can(s) chicken broth or homemade if available
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt & pepper to suit you taste
1 large jalapeno whole with the stem, rinsed but not cut nor seeded
1 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oil in a large saute pan or skillet, Add the package of vermicelli to the oil and with a fork begin to brown your fine pasta. Keep heat at a medium low, so pasta will not scorch. Keep stirring until your vermicelli is pretty much golden brown. Now add the diced onions, garlic and cilantro. Keep mixing and stirring until the onions begin to get limp.
  • 2. Next step pull three whole tomatos from the can and mash down real good with a fork add to the vermicelli and continue to saute with the onion. Saute for about a mintue more.
  • 3. Now add all the reserved tomato juice from the can of whole tomato minus what ever tomato's remain. (Save for some other recipe) stir the vermicelli a little and now add the chicken broth and seasonings oregano, cumin, salt and pepper Mix everything real well and put your whole jalapeno right in the middle of the simmering vermicelli. Do not cut open the jalapeno. Reduce heat medium low and cover your pasta and let cook for about 15/20 minutes. After twenty minutes have passed uncover and fluff with a fork taste to see if seasonings are right. If pasta is still not cooked but somewhat dry add a little more chicken broth. Check vermicelli pasta to see if it needs more salt If it does then remove jalapeno adjust your seasonings and put jalapeno back in the middle. Leave jalapeno in the middle for garnish looks pretty when served at the table. Jalapeno can be discarded or eaten. Jalapeno imparts good flavor but not heat when cooked this way. Enjoy
  • 4. If you use a larger pack of vermicelli then you will need to increase the chicken broth and add a little more salt.

SOPA DE PASTA OR SOPA DE FIDEOS



Sopa De Pasta or Sopa De Fideos image

A nice meatless soup for a change of pace. It's thick like stew and popular with kids. Great Mexican comfort food. From the Vegetarian Journal for Summer 2007

Provided by That is Dr House to

Categories     Vegetable

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

14 1/2 ounces diced tomatoes, canned
1 small onion, quartered
2 garlic cloves
1 small chipotle pepper, in adabo sauce
1 tablespoon canola oil
4 ounces vermicelli or 4 ounces angel hair pasta, uncooked
6 cups vegetable broth, see note
chopped fresh cilantro, garnish

Steps:

  • Break the pasta into 1 inch pieces.
  • In food processor, combine the tomatoes, onions, garlic, and chipotle. Process until smooth.
  • In heavy soup pan, heat oil to med heat. Add pasta and cook, stirring, until pasta turns golden about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Then add the tomato mix and broth. Increase the heat to med high and bring to a boil. Cook uncovered until the pasta is a la dente. That should be about 5 minutes [angel hair cooks faster remember?].
  • Place soup in bowls, garnish with cilantro or use parsley. Serve asap.
  • Notes: Use a Roasted Vegetable Broth. You want it dark and rich. Add Mrs Dash seasoning [I use the Southwest but be warned it is going to spike your heat up] Also don't use Canned as the recipe calls for. Use fresh tomatoes diced with some chilies. Or use Rotel if you must use canned.
  • The recipe above is the Journal's recipe and it is a simple recipe suited to smaller childrens tastes [no hot.] I prefer to kick it up. Seasoning is omitted because of this so you need to add it. If you don't it is going to be a bland broth spiced only by the Roasted Vegetable broth.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your sopa de pasta a more flavorful and nutritious broth. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and zucchini.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of your sopa de pasta, so it's important to use a good one. You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Season your soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for sopa de pasta include grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and crumbled bacon.

Conclusion:

Sopa de pasta is a delicious and versatile soup that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables and pasta, and it's also a hearty and satisfying meal. Next time you're looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give sopa de pasta a try.
