MY PERSONAL CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP (SOPA DE TORTILLA)
I have many recipes on how to make Tortilla Soup, even the ones from Ninfa's, Mansion on Turtle Creek, Felix's, etc. But none really equaled the Tortilla Soup my housekeeper made during my stay in Mexico. This is as close as I can come to her recipe. Good Tasting!

Steps:
- For the soup: Heat a heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Cook the garlic, tomatoes, onion and New Mexico chile in the pan. Using tongs, turn the vegetables occasionally during cooking to ensure charring on all sides. Remove the vegetables once slightly blackened on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove the peel from the garlic. Add the charred vegetables to the blender with the tortilla pieces and 2 cups chicken broth. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a large saucepan and add the remaining 4 cups chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- For the tortilla strips: In a medium, heavy skillet, pour enough oil to reach a depth of 1/2 inch. Heat over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add the tortilla strips in batches and fry until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- To serve: Ladle the soup into 6 individual serving bowls. Serve with sour cream, avocados, cheese, tortilla strips, cilantro and lime wedges on the side.

SOPA SECA DE TORTILLA CON CREMA (MEXICAN DRY SOUP)
I visited my best friend (Magga) over the Easter holiday & borrowed a few cookbooks from her. I was immediately drawn to *Taste of Mexico* by Elisabeth L. Ortiz, found this recipe among her collection of "70 fiery & flavourful recipes from south of the border" & learned some new lessons on authentic Mexican cuisine. Her intro to the *Soups* section says "Soups are a must for the midday main meal (comida). There are 2 types: aguada (liquid) & seca (dry). The 1st term is self-explanatory, but what is a dry soup? It describes a separate course (traditionally a tortilla or rice dish) served after the more conventional soup & before the main course." I never knew that & this "dry soup" sounds so good to me. (Times were estimated & 15 min allowed for ingredient prep + assembly) *Enjoy* !

Steps:
- Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a non-stick fry pan. Saute onion + garlic till soft & stir in chopped tomato.
- Cook tomato till thick, then stir in oregano & sugar. Season to taste & set aside in a bowl.
- Wipe the pan clean w/paper towels, heat the remaining oil in the pan & fry the tortillas without allowing them to brown. Drain fried tortilla strips on paper towels.
- Pour a layer of the tomato sauce into a greased flameproof casserole. Add a layer of tortilla strips, a thin layer of cream, another layer of sauce & a layer of grated cheese. Continue till all ingredients have been used, ending w/a layer of cheese.
- Cover casserole & heat through gently on the stovetop ~ or heat through for about 20 min in an oven preheated to 180C (350F).
- *Cooks Tip* ~ Be sure to use corn tortillas for this recipe. If only lrg ones are available, use 8.
- *Personal Note* ~ Altho not a part of the recipe or its authentic intent, I can easily see this dish 1) Converted to a main-course w/the addition of seasoned grd meat or chorizo to the sauce *or* 2) Combined w/a salad to form a meatless main-dish.

SOPA SECA DE TORTILLA
A rich and creamy Mexican side dish - full of peppers, onions, cheese and corn tortillas. It will surprise you. The name means "Dry Tortilla Soup" Some people would call it a casserole. I call it divine. A nice addition to a Mexican dinner, this also goes well with other foods. Not spicy at all, so it can go with many things. Though it is meant to be a side dish, you could serve it along with a large salad for a luncheon or light dinner. (Or, not so light, maybe) This is so rich and creamy, you'll want to make it for company. If you must have spicy foods, you can add some jalepenos to it if you like. But do try it this way first.
