Ingredients

Soup

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil plus more for garnish
  • 1 large yellow onion coarsely chopped
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 pounds sweet corn kernels frozen or fresh
  • 4 cups yellow tomatoes chopped

Cilantro Sauce

  • 1 cup cilantro
  • 1 ½ cups tomatillos chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • juice of 1 lime

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, sprinkle with a little salt and sweat the onion gently for 5-7 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent.
  • Add the corn and tomatoes and stir. Add the broth and bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 25-30 minutes.
