Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 cups sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter melts.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the peeled and diced potatoes to the pot and stir to combine.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the corn kernels, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup partially to create a creamy texture while leaving some chunks intact. Alternatively, transfer half the soup to a blender, blend until smooth, and return it to the pot.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Heat through for 2-3 minutes, but do not let it boil.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Pair with crusty bread for a perfect meal.
