Sweetcorn, Potato and Ginger Soup
I’m not a lover of sweetcorn but that doesn’t stop me cooking with it. This recipe has been taste-tested by two sweetcorn lovers and given the thumbs up. The sweetness of the corn is offset by salty smoky bacon, fragrant basil and hot sriracho sauce. For a vegan...
