Vegan Corn Chowder
This vegan corn chowder is a hearty, thick and filling soup. You can use fresh or frozen corn, and I’ve blended it with sweet potatoes and coconut milk to make it rich and creamy, with chilli for a spicy kick. I served it with a drizzle of fresh lime juice to really brighten it up and contrast the decadent flavours.
