Corn Chowder Soup

This is my modified recipe of the original corn chowder, not much change but at least some. My husband first introduced me to this soup, and since then I make this soup every now and then. Nice hot bowl of soup with croutons or just toasted bread would make your lunch or dinner, when you're at leisure.  

Serves 2 people

Ingredients

Red bell pepper 1-2 roughly chopped
Onion 1 medium sized, roughly chopped
Potato 1 roughly chopped
Sweet Corn 1-2 cups
Cream about ½ cup
Vegetable stalk (if you don’t have it, just use water)
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Butter 1-2 tsp
Little olive oil



Recipe

1. In a pan add butter, let it melt. Then add olive oil, onion and saute for sometime to soften the onion. Then add bell pepper and potatoes and again saute for 1-2 minutes.
2. If you have boiled sweet corns then add them at the end of this step, and if not, then add at this stage and add water or vegetable stalk just to cover the vegetables. Simmer till the vegetables are cooked.
3. Once veggies are cooked, switch off the heat and let it cool for sometime. Then blend it in a blender. Do not blend it to smooth pure. You should get some chunks of veggies when eating.
4. Now add cream to this mixture and season it with salt and pepper and serve it hot with toasted bread.      

Tip

Red bell peppers are little sweeter than green ones. But if red bell peppers are not available then, you can use green bell peppers.
