Crema De Queso Cubana Cheese Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a soup pot over medium heat until shimmering, about 3 minutes. Add potatoes and onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions are soft and translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add tomato, Hatch chiles, and salt. Cook until tomato has softened, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour in chicken broth and cook over medium-low heat until potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Add cream and milk and bring to a simmer. Add queso fresco and cook until warmed, 2 to 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Toast the flour (no oil, no grease, just add the flour to a medium hot pan and move it until the flour color goes from white to golden or light brown) take the flour out of the pan and clean the pan with a napkin,
• Add oil to the pan and when the oil is hot add the potatoes to brown them, (the potatoes in pieces 1inch aprox) add some salt. You don't want the potatoes fully cooked because you are going to add them to the soup later, but you want them sealed.
• Take the potatoes out, then add to the same pan the garlic and the onion finely chopped, for like 2-3 minutes and add there the anaheim green peppers (if you have a gas stove you can take the peel out of the chilis if you don't nevermind) the green peppers should be finely chopped also, and mix them with the onion and garlic.
• At the end add the tomato finely chopped also, and mix it with the onion, garlic and green chiles.
• Add the toasted flour and mix.
• Add the boiling water and the chicken bouillon, salt, pepper.
• Add the potatoes and the milk, and as soon as it boils, add the cheese pieces (1 in approx) let it boil for like a minute and turn it off. (Because the cheese falls to the bottom of the soup pan and it is hard to fish for it ;) I add it to each plate at the end but thats up to you).
