Directions: |
Directions:Pour oil into medium pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, salt. Cook until softened and 10 minutes. Stir in ginger and Tabasco. Add potatoes and water. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, then reduce heat back to medium or medium-low so that liquid is barely bubbling around edges. Cover and cook until veggies are tender, 15-20 minutes.
Add tomato juice and peanut butter. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup. (If you use regular blender, work in batches and remove the center knob in the lid, replacing with a paper towel or dish towel over the opening to avoid explosions, then pour back into pot. Stir in the chopped cilantro and warm through. Add additional salt or hot sauce to taste.
Garnish with scallions and cilantro. Enjoy! |

Notes: This is a good time to invest in an immersion blender! This also freezes really well so double it and have the rest later.
