Corn & Leek Soup

This soup I made wasn't too bad... I got home hungry like always, checked the fridge to see if there's any food left from last night, and there's nothing but fish and vegetables, called Dad, he said he was busy so I just grabbed the leek and corn out and had some fresh cream left and milk :) and so then I just threw in things that would go nice with the soup. In the end it actually tasted pretty good, funny how you can come up with something out of nothing. This is a simple and easy soup, takes about less that 1hr to cook.

Ingredients:

1- Corn
1whole- Leek
100mL- Milk
150mL- Cream
300mL- Water
2Tbsp- Flour (to thicken the soup)
1 1/2Tbsp- Chicken powder
15g- Butter
Salt & Pepper

Method:

Slice the Leek and cut the corn kernels and keep the stalk of the corn, once you've done that melt the butter in a pot and saute' your leek for a few seconds, and then throw in the corn kernels and cook for another 30seconds. Throw in the liquid ingredients and let it bowl over medium heat, then put in the chicken power, salt & pepper to your likings. Once it's at it's bowling peak, throw in the flour after 30minutes, and let it reduce until it becomes a third less that it was before. Take the stalk out and use a hand blender and blend the solids until a smoothe mixture, if you don't have a hand blender, use a normal juice blender and blend until it's smoothe. Then reduce for another 30minutes until mixture becomes thick and creamy. Serve hot with cool cream in a shot glass or a small cup.


Note:

Serving- Serving with cool cream is because to balance out the over heating power of the soup and the cool cream to give you a warm soup.
Flour- To thicken the soup
