Vegan Sweet Corn Soup

Pin

 

The winter is slowly coming. Or should I say it is coming in slow motion… The mix of warmth and the nip of coolness is actually causing a havoc with the health of majority here. So when the Blogging Marathon #106 themes were declared, I obviously had to choose “Stews and Soups” as one, as all of us will now be looking at warming options for the body and soul. Hehe… So you will find three super easy recipes related to this theme back to back… You can browse the already existing soup recipes here…

 

The first one is a very simple corn soup. I always keep packs of frozen or tinned corn, since my girls love a quick snack with it, most of the time in the form of this buttery pizza corn or this corn chaat. When this theme was declared, I wanted to make use of one of the tins to make some soup. HD has been having his bout of flu and to say the least, it has been very irritating. It is tougher to handle the man more than the kids when they are sick. I am sure many would agree. 😀 I made this soup for him to settle his fever. It was very light on the stomach, had no diary ingredients in it and yet was thick and creamy, to make a full meal. This is a very easy soup that just needs to be mixed and pressure cooked, and then finally it is blended as per your requirement. I kept it a bit chunky with the corn bites but you can go ahead and make it as smooth as you want. I also kept it thick to be had with a spoon but you can add more water as you wish. I do feel a nice douse of coconut milk would up the flavors a good notch for this otherwise simple soup. Off to the recipe…

    although it looks so nice and creamy, I’m with you. I think some coconut milk would definitely add another level of flavor.
