Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 stalks Celery stalks, chopped
- 1 medium Carrot, chopped
- 4 cups Fresh corn kernels
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Thyme, dried
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the corn kernels and cook for another 2 minutes.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Remove the pot from heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, allow the soup to cool slightly and blend in batches using a countertop blender.
Return the pureed soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the coconut milk, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Heat through but do not let it boil.
Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
Garnish each bowl with a sprinkle of fresh basil before serving.
