1. In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat and cook the onion, stirring, until translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the cumin and oregano. Cook 30 seconds. Add the zucchini and broth. Bring to a boil, and cook until the zucchini is very tender, about 20 minutes. Cool for about 10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro.
2. Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor and purée, in batches if necessary, until smooth. Transfer to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours. Soup can be made 1 day ahead. To serve, ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with a swirl of crema, sour cream, or yogurt.
