Spicy Soup Recipes to Keep You Warm This Winter

 

1. Carnitas Caldo (Carnitas Soup)

A post shared by Nicole Hill (@nickledeshill) on Jul 27, 2016 at 6:44pm PDT

First on our list of spicy soup recipes is a Mexican soup, authentically seasoned with tender carnitas and yummy avocado. It’s inspired by Rick Bayless’s XOCO restaurant located in Chicago, and it is perfect for 6 to 8 servings. The secret to this Mexican spicy soup is that the leftovers taste better each time you warm it up.

Ingredients

For the soup:

  • 1 large white onion (peeled and diced)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 2 cups potato-masa dumplings
  • 1 chayote sliced into matchsticks (remove skin and core)
  • 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 5 to 6 cups cooked pork carnitas
  • 1 to 3 roasted Serrano peppers
  • 2 diced avocados
  • 6 to 8 cups fresh baby arugula
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 8 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Lime wedges

For potato-masa dumplings:

  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup masa harina
  • 1 cup mashed potatoes
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

For the soup:

Heat the oil in a large stockpot over a medium-high heat. Once the oil is heated, add the onion and chayote until cooked. Add garlic after, and cook it for another 1 to 2 minutes. After that, add carnitas, Serrano peppers, and chicken broth one at a time, and bring it to a boil. Once done, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover the pot for 30 minutes or more, to let it simmer.

Next, season the dish with salt and pepper as desired. Then, ladle the soup into each bowl, filling it half full, making enough space for avocados, fresh cilantro, and a small handful of potato dumplings. Lastly, place fresh baby arugula on top of each bowl, and you can serve the soup with lime wedges for garnish.

For the potato dumplings:

Mix all the ingredients in each bowl until it is combined perfectly. Massage the mixture with your hands until it is smooth enough. Pinch off ¼ cup of the mixture, and roll it in a tube, about ½ inch wide. Cut the mixture into slices, about 1/8 inch wide each, cover the dumplings, and then refrigerate.

2. Fire-Pot Soup

Fire-Pot Soup | Spicy Soup Recipes To Warm You Up

Love shrimp? Then try one of the spicy soup recipes from Mendocino. The fire-pot soup gives you that warming feeling with its spicy curry broth, topped with rice and shrimps. It’s a wonderful combination for a shrimp-loving family of four!

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup dry Jasmine rice
  • 2 red or green Thai chilies (pierced with a knife)
  • ½ lime (juiced)
  • 1 6-inch stalk lemongrass
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 14-oz can coconut milk
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp fish sauce
  • 6 Thai basil leaves (torn)
  • 1 Tbsp canola oil
  • 3 Tbsp Thai curry paste
  • 8 oz extra firm tofu (cut into small cubes)
  • ¾ lb raw shrimps (deveined, with or without tails)
  • Cilantro for serving

Instructions:

Cook the rice until tender and then, set it aside. Use a non-stick skillet to heat up the canola oil. Once the oil is ready, add the shrimps and fry it for about 30 seconds until it’s pink and curled. Remove the shrimps from the skillet, and place it on a plate with the tofu. Then, set it aside.

Next, adjust the heat to medium-high, and heat up the remaining oil in the skillet. Add the curry paste to the skillet, and combine it with the oil. Stir the paste and oil for about 2 minutes, and slowly whisk in the chicken broth and coconut milk. Once the mixture is ready, add chilies, stalk lemongrass, lime juice, basil leaves, salt, brown sugar, and fish sauce. Simmer for about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, chop the shrimps according to your preference, and add them to the skillet, together with the tofu. Heat the soup for another 1 or 2 minutes. Once done, add the Jasmine rice to individual bowls, and top it with the soup. Sprinkle each bowl with chopped cilantro, and you’re all set!

Yes, Halloween is over, but preparing your spicy soup recipes isn’t! This pumpkin soup is just one of the many pumpkin soup recipes out there that you can try. Its Southwestern feel makes it different from others. This is great for 2 servings!

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp salt (can add more according to preference)
  • ½ tsp ground oregano or 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 4 to 6 chicken stock (depending on your desired thickness)
  • 8 cups chopped and cooked pumpkin
  • 1 to 2 chipotle peppers (chopped)
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 3 garlic cloves (chopped)
  • 1 medium yellow onion (chopped)
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil

For garnishes

  • Toasted, shelled pumpkin seeds
  • Cilantro
  • Crème fresca or sour cream (thinned with a little amount of water)

Instructions:

Heat the olive oil, using a large pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is ready, add the chopped onions and cook it for 3 to 4 minutes, until it’s soft. After that, add chipotle, garlic, and cumin and cook the ingredients for 1 minute or so. Once done, add salt, oregano, chicken stock, and pumpkin. Simmer it by reducing the heat for 20 minutes, and partially cover it while simmering.

For pureeing the soup, remove the pot from heat, and separate the soup from the mixture. Blend the soup by batches (2 cups each) until it’s thick enough, and return the pureed soup to the pot after blending it. The final step is to add the lime juice and more seasonings, as desired. Add more stock or water if the soup is too thick. Serve the soup with toasted pumpkin seeds, creme fresca, and chopped cilantro.
