2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste

occasionally, and add water as needed to prevent sticking. Remove from
heat. Cool. Puree half of soup in blender or food processor until
smooth, and return it to saucepan. If soup is too thick, add water to
desired consistency. Reheat soup. Sprinkle with cilantro, salt, and
pepper just before serving.
