Sopa Tarasca (Pinto Bean Soup) with Jalapeño Corn Fritters

Sopa Tarasca, also known as Pinto Bean Soup, is a traditional Mexican soup that is both hearty and flavorful. Made with pinto beans, tomatoes, onion, and garlic, this soup is packed with protein, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals. The soup is typically garnished with crispy tortilla strips, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped fresh cilantro, which adds a delicious contrast of textures and flavors.

To complement the soup, we recommend serving it with Jalapeño Corn Fritters, which are savory and slightly spicy. The fritters are made with fresh corn kernels, diced jalapeños, scallions, and a mixture of flour and cornmeal. They are fried until crispy and golden brown, and served hot alongside the soup.
