This luscious sweet corn vegetable soup is made with minimum of ingredients but the outcome is just amazing!! sweet corn and vegetable soup falls under the category of thick soup, as we have used corn-flour slurry to thicken the soup. The method of making this recipe is very easy, if you are looking for something to relish as a light meal or something light to consume as an evening snack this is the perfect recipe. I usually make this for my kids for evening snack after they come back from school or classes and also when we prefer having a light meal for dinner.

To make heat the butter in a deep non-stick pan; add the garlic and ginger which give a unique and amazing flavor to our sweet corn and vegetable soup and sauté on a medium flame. Add the sweet corn, crushed sweet corn which would help in making the soup thicker. Also, add boiled and mixed veggies and cook. Once cooked add 4 cups of water and season it with salt and pepper. Cook Indo-Chinese sweet corn veggie soup on a slow flame for 4 minutes, while stirring occasionally in between. Serve sweet corn veg soup immediately.

If you think the sweet corn veg soup is too thick decrease the quantity of corn-flour or add water.

A Indo-Chinese sweet corn veggie soup that warms your heart and fills your tummy! Sautéing the garlic and ginger in butter imparts a characteristic flavour to the soup while the mixed veggies brings out a nice aroma. Cornflour slurry and crushed sweet corn makes the sweet corn soup thick and sumptuous making it a wonderful meal. Just toast some garlic bread and serve them warm with this soup. Magnificent!!

Tips for Sweet Corn Vegetable Soup Recipe

1. Use Fresh or Frozen Corn for Best Sweetness

Freshly boiled sweet corn kernels give the soup natural sweetness and crunch  if fresh corn isn’t available, frozen corn works well too (just thaw before using).

2. Retain Bright Color of Corn

After boiling the sweet corn, you can plunge it into ice-cold water to help retain its bright yellow colour and firm texture in the soup.

3. Adjust Thickness with Cornflour

The soup uses a cornflour slurry to thicken it. If you find it too thick, simply reduce the cornflour or add more water/stock until you reach your desired consistency.

4. Feel Free to Use Vegetable Stock

Instead of plain water, use vegetable stock for deeper flavour and extra nutrition.

5. Sauté Aromatics Well

Sautéing ginger and garlic in butter properly before adding other ingredients intensifies flavour  don’t rush this step.

6. Add Spring Onions for Freshness

For a vibrant finish and extra flavour, garnish your soup with chopped spring onions  they add freshness and a hint of crunch.

7. Include Additional Vegetables

Feel free to add more veggies like carrots, beans or cabbage to make the soup heartier. This also increases fibre and nutrition.

8. Make It Creamier (Optional)

For a creamier and richer soup, add a splash of milk or cream just before serving.

9. Season Thoughtfully

Season with freshly ground black pepper and salt at the end  pepper adds warmth and balances the sweetness of corn very well.

10. Serve With a Crunchy Side

Serve this hot, hearty soup with toasted garlic bread or chilli vinegar on the side for a delicious contrast of textures and flavours.
