Sweet Corn Soup

I'm happy to be back to blogging after my couple of months break....Sweet corn soup is one of the easiest and healthiest soups to make....Corn is a complex carbohydrate loaded with vitamins, minerals, folic acid and high in fiber content.....you can use either canned corn or frozen corn for this recipe...ok, here goes the simple recipe for Sweet corn soup.
Ingredients:
Frozen or canned sweet corn- 1 cup
Finely Chopped green beans, carrot & corn kernels- 3 tbsp
Green(Spring) onion- 2 or 3
salt to taste
Black pepper powder to taste
Oil- 1 tsp

Method:
Finely chop the bulb of green onion and keep the green leaves aside for garnishing. Saute the chopped bulb of onion in a tsp of oil and then add the finely chopped green beans, carrot and a tbsp of corn. Sprinkle some salt and saute this slightly. In the meantime, blend a cup of corn in a mixer and add it to the sauted veggies. (I blend a cup of corn to get the thick stock, this way I avoid adding corn flour to the soup ) Add some water, salt and black pepper powder to taste. Let this boil for 4-5 mins. Garnish with the chopped leaves of the green onions and serve with some garlic bread.
