Why recepie famous for?
All the fixings of a taco - in soup form! Don't skip the toppings - they totally make it! At least cheese and sour cream or yoghurt are essential.
Ingredients
HOMEMADE TACO SEASONING (NOTE 1)1 tsp EACH garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne pepper
2 tsp EACH dried oregano and paprika
2 1/2 tsp cumin powder
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
SOUP
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , minced
1 onion , finely chopped (brown or yellow)
500 g / 1 lb ground beef (mince), lean
400 g/ 14 oz can black beans (1 can) , drained and rinsed (Note 2)
400g / 14oz can corn kernels (1 can) , drained and rinsed
120 g / 4.5 oz canned green chili (Note 3)
800 g / 28 oz canned crushed tomato
2 cups beef broth
TOPPINGS (DON'T SKIP THESE!)
Sour cream or yoghurt (essential!)
Shredded cheese (essential!)
Fresh coriander/cilantro leaves or shallots/scallions , finely sliced
Corn chips
Other options: diced avocado, squeeze of lime juice
Instructions
Heat oil in a pot over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion, cook until softened (3 min).Add beef and turn up the heat to high. Cook, breaking it up as you go, until it all changes from pink to brown.
Add remaining Soup ingredients and Taco Seasoning. Bring to a simmer then turn heat down to medium.
Simmer for 10 minutes to bring the flavours together. Adjust thickness with water if desired.
This is how I like to serve it: place a handful of corn chips in the bowl. Ladle in soup. Top with sour cream, cheese, coriander and a few crushed corn chips. For a healthier option, skip the corn chips in the bowl and/or serve more on the top / side of the soup.
