Chorizo Soup with Cactus
Cooked Nopalitos
1 pound chorizo sausage, sliced
1 medium sized onion, chopped
1 Anaheim chile, stemmed, seeded and chopped
1 quart chicken stock
1/2 cup each sour cream and diced tomatoes
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Prepare Cooked Nopalitos; set aside.
Place sausages in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring,
until browned. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of the fat. Add onion
and chile and cook, stirring, until soft (about 5 minutes). Add
broth and nopalitos. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer
for 10 minutes. Garnish with sour cream, tomatoes and chopped
cilantro.
Cooked Nopalitos: Holding pads with a towel to protect your hands,
shave spines off 1 pound fresh nopales (cactus pads). Trim around
pad to remove thorny edge; peel pads if desired. Slice crosswise
into 1/4 inch strips.
In a saucepan, bring 1 1/2 quarts water to boil; add cactus and 1
stemmed and seeded jalapeno or serano chile. Cook, uncovered, over
high heat until cactus is tender (5 to 7 minutes). Drain, rinse
with cold water and refrigerate.
