1/4 cup oil (second amount)
2 poblano peppers, diced
2 jalapeno pepper, diced
2 sweet green peppers, diced

13 oz tin tomato paste

1/3 cup ground cumin

Cook onions in oil until softened. Put them in the blender with some of the crushed tomato and blend until smooth. (This step is not needed if everyone likes visible onions in their soup)
Cook peppers until soft. Add onion mixture and all ingredients to the pot. Bring to a simmer and then add seasonings and pressed garlic. Adjust seasonings as required.
Serve with the following garnishes:
Tortilla chips, grated cheese, diced avocado, sliced lime, sour cream, chopped cilantro
We used 2 large bags of tortilla chips, 4 cups grated cheese, 6 avocados, 6 limes, 500 ml sour cream for the crowd.
