Notes
If you use fresh corn, you will need to cook it longer so that the corn can infuse the soup.
If you don't have curry, you can substitute it with turmeric to get that rich gold color.
You can also add roasted red peppers at the end for a nice dash of vibrant color!
I have added artichoke hearts and even eggplants and it was incredible.
So play with this recipe and let me know how it turned out!
