Ingredients
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tsp. ground cumin
1 Tbsp. chipotle chilli paste
1 Tbsp. tomato puree
2 x 400g tins black eyed beans, drained and rinsed
1 l hot vegetable stock
juice 1 lime, plus wedges to serve
For the salsa topping
4 Tbsp. tinned sweetcorn, drained
1/2 ripe avocado, chopped
1 large ripe tomato, finely chopped
2 spring onions, thinly sliced
Directions
Step 1Heat oil in a large pan over low heat and fry onion for 7-8min, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add garlic, cumin, chipotle and tomato purée and fry, stirring, for 1min. Stir through the beans and stock, bring to the boil and simmer for 10min.
Step 2Meanwhile mix salsa ingredients and check seasoning.
Step 3Remove half the beans and liquid to a blender and whizz until smooth. Return to the pan with the unblended soup and season to taste with salt, pepper and lime juice.
Step 4Divide soup between 4 bowls and top with the salsa ingredients. Serve.
GH TIPS:
For a thicker, smoother soup, simply whizz more of the beans at step 3. Or leave it chunky if you prefer.
Love a bit of spice? Feel free to add a chopped jalapeno to the salsa if you like a bit of a chilli kick.
