Instructions

  • Start by chopping up the onions, garlic, bell pepper, celery, potatoes and corn. Set aside in separate bowls.
  • Turn burner on medium-high heat. In a medium-large pot, saute the onions for a few minutes.  Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add in the corn, bell pepper and celery to the pot (Add spicy pepper here if using). Stir occasionally until translucent and starting to brown slightly.
  • Add in the garlic and potatoes the last 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasonings
  • Immediately add the vegetable broth and bring up to a boil, then turn down to a simmer.  Simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and soften.
  • Turn off the heat. Pour a couple cups of the soup along with the cream  into a blender and let cool slightly.
  • Puree until smooth, then stir back into the soup. Repeat step six if you like a more creamy/smooth soup, otherwise if you like it on the chunkier side then move on to finishing.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot and enjoy a bowl right away!
