Instructions

  1. Start by peeling and chopping the chayote into small cubes. Dice the onion finely.
  2. In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until it becomes translucent and soft.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute, stirring continuously to avoid burning.
  4. Add the chopped chayote and pour in vegetable broth. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the chayote is tender.
  6. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it is smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches, blend until smooth, and return it to the pot.
  7. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Give it a final stir, then ladle the hot soup into bowls. Enjoy your warm and comforting chayote soup!
