amanda

Equipment

  • Stand Mixer with Blender Bowl

  • High-Speed Hand Blender

  • Heavy Duty Immersion Blender (Stick Blender)

Ingredients

  • Kernels from 3 ears fresh corn, or 2 cups frozen corn, defrosted

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Salt and black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion

  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped

  • 1 lime, finely grated zest and juice

  • 1 jalapeño, stemmed and seeded, finely chopped

  • 1 avocado, pitted and chopped

  • Kernels from 5 ears fresh corn, or 3 cups frozen corn, defrosted

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed

  • 1/2 red onion, chopped

  • 1 jalapeño, stemmed and chopped

  • Salt and black pepper

  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth

  • Cilantro sprigs, to garnish

Instructions

1

Instruction 1

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
2

Instruction 2

Put the corn kernels on the baking sheet and toss with the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Spread the corn out evenly on the baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, until the corn turns a golden brown. It may seem that you have left the corn in the oven for too long, but you want the corn to caramelize and get a little crunchy. Remove the corn from the oven and set aside.

Instruction 3

Put the kernels (fresh or frozen and defrosted) in a blender.
4

Instruction 4

Combine the oil and the garlic in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and jalapeño. Season with salt and pepper and sauté until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 6 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to the blender and puree until smooth. (You may need to pulse or stir the corn mixture in order to achieve a smooth consistency, but do not add any more liquid.)
5

Instruction 5

Pour the corn puree into the soup pot and place over medium heat. Stir constantly for a few minutes, until the soup begins to thicken. Slowly whisk or stir in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, decrease the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

Instruction 6

In a bowl, combine the roasted corn, red onion, cilantro, lime zest and juice, and jalapeño. Gently stir in the avocado. Season with salt and pepper.

Instruction 7

Ladle the soup into soup bowls. Place a generous spoonful of the guacamole in the center of each bowl. Garnish with a small sprig of cilantro placed in the center of each.
