Steps:
- Sauté the onions and jalapeño: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and the chopped jalapeño, and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until the onions are translucent, but not browned.
- Cook the garlic and zucchini: Add the garlic and zucchini to the pan and sauté for another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often. Sprinkle with salt.
- Add the bread and liquids: Add the bread, broth, and water, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 20 minutes. (Note: If you're using uncooked potatoes instead, you may need to simmer a little longer, depending on what kind of potatoes you use.)
- Purée the soup: Remove the soup from the heat. Add the mint and cilantro (if using). Purée in a blender or food processor until smooth, working in batches if necessary. (You can also use an immersion blender.)
- Add lemon juice, salt, pepper: Return the soup to the pot. Add the lemon juice, along with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with lemon wedges and sprigs of mint or cilantro. Serve hot or chilled. Keeps for up to a week in the fridge.

MOLE DE OLLA - SPICY BEEF SOUP
This is my mom's recipe. It has a spicy, hearty flavor, yet it is not heavy. It's also full of vegetables, which can be varied by adding carrots or potatoes, but the corn is essential. If available, try using Mexican zucchini, which is pale green and smaller than regualr zucchini. Also, the pasilla chilies cannot be substituted, as the flavor would change entirely. It is always served with lime wedges, chopped onion and a side of arroz blanco (such as Recipe #130916) and it is your choice to add it into the bowl of soup or not. We usually ate all the soup first and left the corn to the end, adding more lime juice and salt to it.

Steps:
- Place the meat in a large stock pot and cover with cold water by 2 1/2 inches. Add the onion (peeled, but left whole), the garlic cloves, salt parsley. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Lower heat and skim off any gray foam that rises to the top. Keep doing this periodically. Cook over medium-low heat.
- Meanwhile, rinse the chilies and place in a bowl. Cover with hot water and place something on top to keep the chilies submerged.
- When the meat has been cooking for about an hour, take the parsley, garlic and onion out of the pot. Reserve the garlic, discard the onion and parsley. Add the corn and chayote and cook for 10 minutes. Add the zucchini.
- By this time, the soaked chilies should be very soft. Seed and devein them, using rubber gloves if you need to. Place them in a blender with the reserved garlic and add about 1 cup of the broth from the meat and vegetables. Season with a bit of salt. Blend until everything is pureed. Set aside.
- *DO this when all the vegetables are cooked through, but not mushy.* Pass the puree chilies through a colander onto the stock pot, using a spoon to push the mixture through.
- Cook until the soup has boiled for 5 minutes after the addition of the chile. *DO not cook longer as the vegetables will become mushy and the soup will be spicier.
- Serve piping hot with all of the accompaniments listed above.
- Note: This soup is delicious served the next day, but it is best to reheat it over low heat and not boiling it too much so that the veggies stay whole. It will have puddles of solidified fat when cold. You can remove them if you want.
