Veg Sweet Corn Soup

This is one soup which my DH and I love. We always end up ordering this soup at the restaurant most of the times. Here's how to prepare this simple and heart warming soup.



Serves - 4

Ingredients

  • American Sweet corn kernels - 1/2 cup
  • Water / Vegetable stock - 4 cups
  • Butter - 1 tbsp ( you can use olive oil instead)
  • Onion - 1 small, julienne
  • Carrots - 1/4 cup, diced
  • Green beans - 1/4 cup, diagonally cut
  • Spring onion - diagonally cut, a small bunch
  • Garlic - 1 tsp, minced
  • Sugar - 1 tsp (optional)
  • Salt  - to taste
  • Black pepper powder - for garnish / to taste
  • Corn starch - 1 tbsp

Procedure

  1. Boil the sweet corn kernels. Grind half of the corn with a little water and keep aside.
  2. In a pan, heat the butter/oil. Add the garlic and saute.
  3. Add onions and saute till translucent.
  4. Now add all the veggies except corn reserving few spring onion greens for final garnish.
  5. Saute for few minutes before adding the corn puree and the corn kernels.
  6. Add vegetable stock/water , sugar, salt and boil till the veggies are half done. Soup tastes better when the veggies are a little crunchy. :-)
  7. Mix the corn starch with little water and add gently while giving the soup a nice stir. Stop adding the corn starch mixture once the desired consistency is reached.
  8. Finally garnish with spring onions.
  9. Serve in a soup bowl sprinkling a little black pepper.
