This soup is a mixture of delicious seafood and fresh vegetables with a slightly sweet taste. Taught to me by a friend during my time in Honduras. Maybe it's because I've been away for so long, but this is a food that I always crave! You can substitute many of the seafood items, especially for a quicker or easier recipe. Same goes for the vegetables. However, the thing that makes this soup distinct from other seafood soups is the coconut milk.

Grandma's recipe. It is traditionally made only during lent. It made a hearty meal for those who could not afford the fish that is usually eaten for lent. It took me forever to get this recipe from my grandmother and the few recipes posted on the internet looked kinda flaky. I now have it and am posting it for safekeeping. I do suggest using ONLY mexican or central american queso seco (dry cheese) because any other cheese simply will not work. This cheese does not have any moisture which allows the patties to hold well and it is salty enough that it almost eliminates the need to use any more salt. It can usually be found in most mexican stores or large specialty stores like Fiesta Mart.

This has to be my favourite Honduran dish. I don't really know why but what they call enchiladas in Honduras is quite different from what they call enchiladas in Mexico. I recently found a place where they sell real corn tortillas here and since then I'm just enjoying the original flavors of Honduras and of my youth. It does take some time to prepare but it is all worth it! Ingredients and steps: For the meat - 300gr minced meat (ground beef) - 1/2 an onion, diced - 1/2 green pepper, chopped - 1 tomato, chopped - 3 garlic cloves, crushed - about 4 tbsp cumin - salt and pepper Mix all well, cover and leave it for a few hours. For the sauce There are different ways of doing the sauce, I like this version the most - 3 tomatoes, chopped - 1 red pepper, sliced - 1 onion, sliced - 1 tsp sugar - 2 tbsp cumin - 1 tbsp sweet chili powder - 1 cup chicken broth - pepper, salt if needed Fry the red pepper for 5 minutes. Add the onion and saute for another 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and fry at medium-high heat for again 5 minutes. Add the sugar, cumin, chili powder, and half of the chicken broth. Put the mixture in a blender. When ready, strain the mixture into to the pan. Let it cook at medium-low heat for a few minutes. Prepare the rest of the ingredients: - 2 potatoes - 2 eggs - 1/4 cabbage - dry cheese (queso seco). If you cannot find any, Parmesan will do. - corn tortillas - oil Cook the potatoes and the eggs. When ready, cut the potatoes and slice the eggs. Finely shred the cabbage. Shred the cheese. Fry the corn tortillas until crispy and set them aside. In a large pan, fry now the meat at high heat until cooked through. Putting all together: Take a tortilla. Add the meat, some potatoes. Add the shredded cabbage, the egg and then the sauce. Cover with queso seo (or Parmesan cheese).
