Turn off the heat and mix in the salt, pepper and gata and wait for the soup to cool for 10 minutes without the lid. 5. Blend until smooth then transfer back to the pot. Bring to first boil then turn off the heat. Add water if you want a thinner consistency. Garnish with cilantro and a drizzle of fresh gata. Serve hot.
