COCONUT CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Chop onion and fry in oil (medium low-ish heat) for about 5 minutes.
• Add garlic & ginger, fry for another 3-4 minutes.

• Scoop out about 3/4 of the corn and puree it in a blender or food processor. Put it back in the pot, add seasonings and black beans.
• Simmer until hot!

SPICY CORN AND COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs and transfer to a bowl. Using the back of a butter knife, scrape the cobs so that all of the milky juices collect in the bowl and the cobs look completely dry, like wrung-out sponges. Set aside. (If using frozen kernels, skip this step.)
• In a large stockpot over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add shallots, garlic, ginger and chile, and sauté, stirring occasionally, until soft and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Add corn kernels and juices to the pot, and sauté until the corn is softer and brighter, about 3 minutes more.
• Add potato pieces, and stir to coat, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Now, pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender all the way through.
• Use an immersion blender to roughly purée the soup, so that it's creamy with some kernels of corn, chunks of potato, and chile flecks remaining. (Alternatively, ladle about half of the soup into a blender, blend until smooth, and return to the pot.) Season with lime juice and salt, and mix to combine. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with toppings of your choice.

CREAMY VEGAN CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions and celery; cook until just slightly golden. Stir in carrots and garlic; cook until garlic is slightly golden.
• Meanwhile, bring water to a boil over high heat. Stir in bouillon, and reduce heat to medium. When bouillon cubes have dissolved, add corn and the vegetables from the skillet. Cook until vegetables are tender. Add water, if necessary. Reduce heat to low, and pour in 1 cup soy milk. Stir soup well, then stir in remaining 1 cup soy milk. Quickly whisk in flour. Stir in parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until chowder thickens, about 15 to 20 minutes.

VEGAN CREAMY CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Add 1 teaspoon of salt to a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Add yam. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spread carrots onto a baking sheet and drizzle with avocado oil. Season with rosemary and a pinch of salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until carrots are tender when poked with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Combine stock, coconut milk, and vegan butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in remaining salt, celery flakes, turmeric, and black pepper and slowly bring soup to a boil, about 5 minutes.
• Combine quinoa flour and onion powder in a bowl. Slowly whisk about 1/4 cup hot soup into quinoa mixture to form a loose batter. Slowly whisk batter into the soup. Reduce heat to low; let soup simmer but not boil, about 5 minutes.
• Add cooked yam and carrots to soup. Stir in corn kernels and paprika. Continue cooking over low heat until heated through, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt.
