Directions:
1. Place a large pot over medium heat and add the olive oil.
2. Add the chopped onions and carrots to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions become translucent and the carrots start to soften.
3. Stir in the canned tomatoes and crushed puya chilies. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
4. Continue cooking the mixture for 12 minutes. The tomatoes should break down slightly and the flavors will begin to meld together.
5. Remove the pot from heat.
6. Transfer the cooked tomato mixture to a food processor.
7. Add the jalapeno peppers and cilantro. Blend until the mixture is smooth to your liking.
8. For a smoother consistency, you can strain the soup through a sieve to remove any remaining chunks or seeds.
9. Let the soup cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.
10. This usually takes about 1 to 2 hours.
11. Serve the chilled soup in bowls. You can garnish with a dollop of sour cream, some fresh cilantro leaves, or additional chopped chilies if you like a spicier soup.
