Ingredients for - Chipotle Chili with Avocado Sour Cream
How to cook deliciously - Chipotle Chili with Avocado Sour Cream
1. Stage
Make the avocado sour cream: Use a small blender to process the cashews and water together into a smooth cream. Add the avocado, lime juice and sea salt, then blend again to form a whip. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Will keep for several days in a sealed container, refrigerated.)
2. Stage
Blend 4 cups of the tomatoes in a blender or food processor until a chunky purée has formed. Set aside.
3. Stage
In a large pot, melt the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, celery, peppers, and sweet potato, plus the remaining 2 cups of chopped tomatoes and sauté for about 5 minutes longer to help break down the tomatoes. Add the prepared tomato puree, thyme, chipotle, cooked beans, wakame, and vegetable broth to the pot. Season with some salt, stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes. Taste and add additional salt if needed, then simmer over low heat, uncovered, for 15 minutes longer, adding a little water if necessary. When the chili is finished cooking, serve hot, with a dollop of Avocado Sour Cream.
