Corn soup recipe

 Ingredients:

➤2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels

➤1 medium onion, finely chopped

➤2 cloves garlic, minced

➤1 medium carrot, diced

➤1 celery stalk, diced

➤4 cups chicken or vegetable broth

➤1 cup milk or cream (for a creamier soup)

➤2 tablespoons butter

➤2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

➤Salt and pepper to taste

➤Fresh parsley or chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:

➤In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrot,      and celery. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

2. Make the Roux:

➤Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir continuously to create a roux. Cook for 2-3 minutes to      remove the raw taste of the flour.

3. Add Corn and Broth:

➤Add the corn kernels to the pot and stir well. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, stirring                    constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

4. Simmer:

➤Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to              meld  and the vegetables to become tender.

5. Blend (Optional):

If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency. Alternatively, transfer a portion of the soup to a blender, blend until smooth, and then return it to the pot.

6. Add Milk or Cream:

➤Pour in the milk or cream to the soup, stirring constantly. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes,                ensuring the soup is heated through.

7. Season:

➤Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.

8. Serve:

➤Ladle the corn soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.

9. Enjoy:

Serve the corn soup hot and enjoy your delicious and comforting meal!
