Ingredients

    1/2 tsp sesame oil
    2 scallions, thinly sliced
    1 garlic clove, crushed
    2 1/2 Cups chicken broth
    1 can (12-15 oz) sweet corn
    1 1/4 Cups cooked, peeled shrimp
    1 tsp Thai chili sauce (like Siracha) (Optional)
    Salt and pepper, to taste
    Fresh cilantro leaves, to garnish

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.
