Avocado Soup

In a sauté pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the onion, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, for another minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Chop the avocado and place the meat in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice. In a food processor, puree the avocado and cucumber until smooth. Add the sautéed onion mixture and the chives and process again.

Transfer the avocado mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the chicken broth and sour cream until smooth. Season with salt. Chill the soup thoroughly in the refrigerator.

To serve, garnish with the chopped tomato.
