Spicy Corn Soup

This a soup which my soup hating husband loves. It is very yummy especially if you like spicy food, you will love that little heat with corn flavor. It has a creamy texture. I bet it can become your favorite soup too once you try it.



Ingredients:
  • 4 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 3/4 tsp red chili powder
  • salt as per taste
  • 6 cups water/ chicken stock/ veg stock
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
Directions:
  • In a large vessel, take a tablespoon of olive oil and heat it.
  • Add onion and garlic and saute well for a minute or two.
  • Add red chili powder and corn kernels, mix well.
  • Add water or stock and cook the corn kernels well.
  • When the corn is cooked, take the vessel off the stove top and let it cool.
  • Blend the mixture in a food processor and pass the puree through a strainer or a sieve into a vessel. Discard the corn particles collected in the strainer.
  • Heat the puree add salt and heavy cream. Let it simmer for some time.
  • Enjoy it warm in this cold weather.
