Directions
1. Open your can of corn, or bag of frozen, whatever it is, open and pour into a food processor. Puree for a few seconds, until creamy yet with some texture left. You could use canned cream-style corn, but this is better for you! Set aside.

2. Heat the oil in a large heavy-based saucepan and saute the scallions and garlic over medium heat for 1 minute until softened, but not browned.

3. Stir in the chicken broth, Corn, shrimp, and chili paste or sauce, if using.

4. Bring the soup to a boil, stirring occasionally. Season to taste, then serve at once, sprinkled with fresh cilantro leaves to garnish.

This makes 4 1 1/2-Cup servings.
