Elevate soups from appetizers to showstopping main courses with this satisfying, flavorful, and affordable recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 2 corncobs, husks and silk removed
  • 9.20 gm olive oil
  • 2 green shallots, trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 500ml (2 cups) vegetable liquid stock
  • 300g can butter beans, rinsed, drained
  • 42.00 gm fresh lime juice
  • Salt, to taste
  • Cayenne pepper, to sprinkle
  • 4 small lime wedges
Instructions:
  • With a small sharp knife, carefully cut along the length of the corncobs near the core to extract the kernels.
  • In a saucepan over medium-low heat, gently saute the green shallots in hot oil until soft. Stir in the corn kernels and stock, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover partially, and simmer for 10 minutes until corn is tender, stirring occasionally.
  • *Toss in the butter beans and let it gently simmer for an extra 5 minutes uncovered. Off the heat, scoop out 1 cup of the soup into a food processor and blitz until nearly smooth. Pour it back into the pan and mix well.*
  • Heat the soup over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it boils. Add lime juice, taste, and season with salt.
  • Serve the soup in small bowls (or tea cups), lightly dust with a pinch of cayenne pepper, and garnish with a lime wedge before serving.
