Chileatole rouge avec légumes d'automne

Ingredients for Red Chileatole with Fall Vegetables

• 3 ears fresh corn, shucked

• 1 tablespoon vegetable or olive oil

• 4 pliable dried ancho chillies (90g), stemmed, seeded, and each torn into several pieces

• 3 garlic cloves, peeled

• 1 medium white onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

• 1.4L Imagine brand vegetable broth (48 fluid ounces)

• 1 1/2 tablespoons masa harina

• 230g fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded and caps cut into 1/2-inch slices (800g )

• 170g green beans or sugar snap peas, trimmed and halved or cut into thirds (475ml )

• 230g fingerling potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

• 2 large sprigs fresh epazote (each 12 to 16 inches long) or fresh flat-leaf parsley sprigs

• 1 3/4 teaspoons salt, or to taste

• Accompaniment: 2 limes, cut into wedges

Cut off kernels from 1 ear corn. Cut remaining 2 ears corn (including cob) crosswise into 1-inch pieces.

Heat oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook chillies, garlic, and onion, stirring occasionally, until onion is pale golden, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer chilli mixture to a bowl with a slotted spoon, pressing mixture against side of pot to leave behind as much oil as possible. Do not clean pot; there will be a thin film of oil remaining.

Purée half of chilli mixture with 240ml broth and 2 1/4 teaspoons masa harina in a blender until smooth, then force purée through a medium-mesh sieve with a rubber spatula into a medium bowl.

Purée remaining chilli mixture, 240ml broth, and remaining 2 1/4 teaspoons masa harina in same manner, forcing through sieve into same bowl.

Heat oil remaining in pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook chilli puré, stirring constantly, until it reaches a boil and is slightly thickened.

Stir in remaining 950ml broth and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

Stir in corn (kernels and pieces), mushrooms, green beans, potatoes, and epazote and gently simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, 15 to 25 minutes.

Thin chileatole with a little more broth or water to attain a single cream soup consistency, then stir in salt.
