SKINNY CURRIED CORN SOUP

Steps:

• In a large saucepan heat oil over medium-high heat. Add sweet pepper and onion; cook about 4 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add curry powder, salt, and pepper; cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Stir in corn and chicken broth. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and cook about 5 minutes or until corn is tender. Cool about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the corn mixture to a blender or food processor.* Add 1/2 cup of the milk. Cover and blend or process until mixture is nearly smooth. Return pureed mixture to saucepan; stir in the remaining 2 1/2 cups milk and the shrimp. Heat through (do not boil). Stir in snipped cilantro.

• *Note: If using a food processor, process half the mixture at a time using 1/4 cup of the milk with each half.

FRESH CURRIED CORN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add onion; cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Add broth, corn, potatoes, lemon juice and salt to saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes; remove from heat.
• In a blender, food processor or using an immersion blender, puree mixture (in batches if necessary), until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
• To serve, stir cilantro or scallions into soup. Spoon into bowls and top with about 2 teaspoons each of yogurt and tomato. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro or scallions, if desired. Serve hot or cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.
