Mexican Beef, Lime & Tortilla Soup instructions

1. Heat oil in a large pot and cook onion and garlic until onion is soft and browning..
2. Add Capsicum and mince, cook for another 5 minutes (stirring occasionaly) until beef is slightly browned..
3. Add spices and cook for another minute, stirring all the while. Add dried oregano, tomato and stock- bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes..
4. While the soup simmers, chop 4 of the tortillas into pieces about 2.5cm squared, then stir into the soup along with lime or lemon juice and a good pinch of sea salt. Simmer for a further 5mins- then stir in fresh chopped coriander..
5. For a nice garnish I sliced up a couple of the tortillas into 5mm strips, sprayed with olive oil, sprinkled with some tumeric and baked on high heat for around 10 mins- turning once. I removed from the oven and layed them on paper towel to let crispy up..
6. Spoon into bowls with crispy turmeric tortilla chips in the centre. Very nice!.
