Recipe Instructions:
-
In a large saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
-
Add finely chopped onions to the pan and cook them covered, stirring occasionally, until they become translucent, which usually takes around 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Add the chopped yellow tomatoes to the saucepan and cook them uncovered until they become pulpy, which typically takes about 20 minutes.
-
Transfer the cooked tomato mixture to a blender or food processor and puree it in two batches until smooth.
-
Strain the pureed mixture through a fine sieve into a large bowl to remove any skins and seeds, ensuring a silky texture.
-
Season the strained mixture with salt and black pepper according to your taste preferences.
-
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the soup until it’s thoroughly chilled, allowing the flavors to meld, for at least 2 hours or overnight for enhanced taste.
-
Just before serving, prepare the avocado puree by peeling and pitting the avocado. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with chopped cilantro, lime juice, and shallot until you achieve a coarse puree consistency. Season the avocado puree with salt and pepper to taste.
-
In another small bowl, toss together diced red tomatoes, yellow pear tomatoes, and tomatillos with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil, ensuring they are well coated.
-
To serve, ladle the chilled yellow tomato soup into 6 chilled soup plates.
-
Place a generous scoop of the prepared avocado puree in the center of each soup plate, creating a visually appealing contrast of colors.
-
Surround the avocado puree with a portion of the tomato mixture, adding a vibrant pop of freshness to each serving.
-
Garnish the soup with slivered cilantro and a grinding of black pepper, adding a final touch of flavor and elegance to the dish.
