INSTRUCTIONS
In a soup pot, saute onions & garlic in oil until softened. Add the chiles, cumin & oregano & saute a few more minutes. Add tomatoes & sprinkle with a little salt. Cover the pot & cook gently until the tomatoes begin to release their juices. Stir occasionally. Add stock & simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Add lime juice & check the seasoning. Serve topped with crumbled tortilla chips (I find that these are not necessary) & garnish with cilantro.
