Best Roasted Corn And Pepper Soup Recipes

CREAM OF ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER SOUP WITH ROASTED SWEET CORN AND CILANTRO- LIME SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Slice the peppers in half lengthwise; remove stem, seeds and membrane. Place under the broiler skin side up until the skin turns black and blisters. Remove and immediately place in a small paper bag or plastic container with a tight lid. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes; this will loosen the roasted skin. Remove peppers and rub off the black skin with your fingers. Chop skinned peppers and set aside.
• Saute the butter, onions, and garlic until soft in a heavy bottomed soup pot on medium-low heat. Add the reserved red peppers, tomato paste, and chicken stock. Bring to a low boil, reduce the heat, and then simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cornstarch mixed with a little cold water to thicken. Simmer 5 minutes. *Let the soup cool slightly, and then blend in batches in a blender, or use an immersion blender to puree. Sprinkle the roasted corn over the soup before serving and top with a dollop of Cilantro Lime Sour Cream.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk all ingredients vigorously until light and creamy.

SAUSAGE, CORN AND ROASTED RED PEPPER SOUP

Steps:

• Combine the rice, broth and water in a large stock pot and simmer covered for about 1 hour, or until rice is soft.
• While the rice is cooking, roast the red peppers over a gas burner, under a broiler or on a grill. Try to get entire skin charred.
• Once charred, transfer the peppers to a plastic bag and let sit for 15 minutes. Remove peppers, peel, remove the seeds and slice into thin 1" long strips. Set aside.
• Heat oil in skillet, add garlic and saute over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add corn and saute an additional 3-5 minutes. If you're using frozen corn, try to partially thaw it first and remove as much ice and water as possible.
• Once corn is done, remove from heat and add the chopped up peppers to the skillet.
• When rice is done, add the garlic/corn/pepper mixture to the pot.
• Slice sausage into 1/4" thick half rounds and saute in skillet until browned.
• Add the browned sausage to the pot and season with 1tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste. Give it a taste and add the sambal olek if you want a little heat.
• Let simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until it starts to get quite thick.
