Servings: persons

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 medium carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
3/4 cup roughly chopped fresh ginger
1 cup dry white wine
6 cups chicken broth
One 28-ounce can diced tomatoes, with their juice
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Mint Mojo (recipe follows)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
1/2 cup fresh mint
2 garlic cloves, peeled
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

1
Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
2
Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.
3
Add the carrots, celery, ginger, and white wine.
4
Simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the wine has nearly completely evaporated.
5
Add the chicken broth and canned tomatoes.
6
Simmer the soup for about 45 minutes, or until the ginger has mellowed and the vegetables are soft.
7
Using a blender, an immersion blender, or a food processor, puree the soup until smooth, and then season with salt and pepper.
8
Serve immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
9
Reheat the soup over medium heat.
10
Top with a drizzle of Mint Mojo before serving.
11
Like Cilantro-Garlic Mojo, this paste is a fragrant mix of herbs and spices that adds bold flavor to meat, fish, and poultry.
12
Unlike sauces with butter or cream, mojos are a much lighter alternative.
13
This mojo is a fresh and a natural partner for Char-Grilled Rack of Lamb with Cinnamon and Cumin.
14
Combine the cilantro, mint, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and sugar in the work bowl of a food processor and pulse to a pestolike consistency.
15
Use immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Mix well before using.
