Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons virgin or extra-virgin coconut oil
1/2 cup sliced scallion, white and light green and dark greens parts kept separate
1 cup peeled chopped potato
1 tablespoon chopped peeled ginger
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 1/2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
3 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
1/4 to 1/2 cup coconut milk
Toasted chopped almonds, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the coconut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the scallion whites and light greens and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer.
  • Add all but 2 tablespoons of the corn to the broth and continue to simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Remove from the heat and let cool at least 5 minutes. Carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill blender more than halfway full).
  • Stir in the coconut milk and reheat the soup if necessary, adjusting the consistency and seasoning with additional water, salt and pepper. Put the reserved corn in small bowl and microwave for a few seconds, just to remove the chill.
  • Serve hot and top with almonds, reserved corn and sliced scallion greens.

I've made this soup a few times now, and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make, and it's always so creamy and flavorful. I love adding a dollop of sour cream on top.

This soup was absolutely delicious! The flavors of the corn, potato, and coconut milk blended perfectly together. I added a bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick, and it was perfect.
