Ingredients
- 1 poblano pepper
- 1 onion (chopped)
- 1 potato (peeled)
- 600 ml warm water
- 450 gr corn kernels preferably (fresh)
- 400 ml low-sodium fat-free chicken broth
- 180 gr soft tofu
- 16 ml olive oil
- 1 gr salt
1) Preheat oven to 230ºC . Roast pepper on oven rack for 15 minutes or until skin blisters. Wrap pepper in a paper towel or put in a paper bag and set aside for 10 minutes.
2) Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and potato; saute for 5 minutes. Add the water, broth, and salt; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the corn and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
3) Peel the skin from the pepper and discard; place the flesh in a food processor or blender. Add the corn mixture and tofu; process or blend until pureed. Strain soup, if desired. Garnish with remaining kernels of corn. Serve hot or chilled.
