Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 4 cups corn kernels, fresh or frozen
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, diced celery, and diced carrots, cooking for an additional 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the corn kernels to the pot and stir to combine.
Pour in the vegetable stock, ensuring that the vegetables are completely covered.
Add the bay leaf and thyme leaves, then season with salt and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.
Remove the bay leaf from the soup.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup.
Stir in the coconut milk and let it heat through for about 2 minutes.
Add the lemon juice and taste; adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
