Recipe: Spicy Organic Sweetcorn Soup

Soupy Sunday - Spicy Organic Sweetcorn Soup

As part of Organic September and a box of organic vegetables from Locavore, this meant soup time!  We were feeling a little tender so needed something easy to make and comforting as well.  Sweetcorn cobs are abundant just now, add some potatoes, stock and chillies to make a spicy and creamy soup.

1 onion (chopped)
2 garlic cloves (crushed)
2 tablespoon olive oil
½-1 teaspoon chilli flakes
200g potatoes (chopped)
450g sweetcorn kernels
2 fresh bay leaves
1-litre fresh chicken stock

Fry the onion and garlic in a large saucepan with the olive oil until softened.
Stir through the chilli flakes and a pinch of salt, then fry for 1 minute.
Add chopped potatoes with the sweetcorn kernels and bay leaves.
Add the stock and bring to the boil.
Reduce to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are soft.
Add a handful of sweetcorn kernels to a frying pan and toast until tender.
Remove the soup from the heat and allow to cool a little, then whizz with a stick blender until smooth.
