Directions:
- In a large skillet (deep) or in a dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat, and saute onions, celery, garlic, and jalapenos for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened, golden, and caramelized.
- Add plantains, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring VERY often; Cook until plaintains are slightly softened and golden in color.
- Add water, increase heat to medium high and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer ever so gently for 8 to 10 minutes until plantains are very tender.
- Add cream and bring mixture to a boil.
- Remove pan from heat immediately after it comes to a boil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- Transfer mixture to a food processor or even a blender and puree until smooth.
- (you may have to do this in batches).
- If you feel that it is too thick, you may add an additional 1/2 cup of water to get your desired consistancy.
- Strain soup and discard any solids.
- Return soup to the pan, place over medium-low heat and cook, stirring very often, until it is heated through (just warm).
- Serve right away; do not save.
- Garnish soup with queso fresco and plantain chips.
