I don't think soups get much better than creamy, sweet and utterly satisfying. This thermomix Chicken Sweet Corn Soup ticks all the boxes and more because we all know how easy a thermomix meal is. The flavour is really something else and I was only thinking the other night that a spice mix or a sprinkle of chilli would just help take it to the next level.
Don't mistake the fact that it isn't full of spices to mean that this is a bland soup. It has - dare I say it - a real depth of flavour that is beautiful all on its own. Make sure it's on your list of must do's this winter.

Thanks Leonie. Made this today. Did add 2 tblspns of dried chicken stock as that is what I am used to with Mum’s recipe. Love it. Won’t be slaving over the stove anymore.

Yum yum yum! About the best chicken sweet corn soup I've tasted! I added some cooked strips of bacon as I had cooked too much for the ceaser salad we had after. So easy too.
thermofun says
Thanks Karen! Can never have too much bacon I say! Pleased you enjoyed it! :)
Jill Ford says
Yum! Id do a bit less water like 500g as I like soup thick. Delicious with thermofun sweet Chili sauce!

Such a great and easy meal, I was surprised! I used to order from the local Chinese but now I can make it myself, healthy and delicious.

Thanks Nicolette! :)

This soup is delicious. Certainly will be making this again. It's quick and easy and would be on the table before you could pick up Chinese takeaway. Thanks Leonie for another winning recipe.

I didn't have any creamed corn so, as I was halving the recipe (as it is only Kip and I), I halved the 420g tin of corn (scary that a 420g tin of corn only contains 260g of actual corn...) and made the creamed corn from the Cajun Creamed Corn recipe without the spices - worked really well. I replaced 50g of cream in that recipe with 50g of the water that the corn was canned in - just cos I didn't want to just tip it down the sink! (so only used 70g of cream)
As I halved the recipe, maybe I should have amended the cooking time to 10 mins in step 2. Was lovely but maybe a bit overcooked.
To circumvent the oldest child (ie. husband) saying it was bland (which it definitely was not) I mixed some chilli with soy sauce and sesame oil in a small bowl that could be added to the soup. We both added it but the soup was nice without it. This is great if you are cooking for a family with different spice needs?
1/2 the recipe served us with a bowl of soup and we each have leftovers for lunch...
Really easy and tasty.
