Recipe for Curry Corn Chowder with Roasted Poblanos. This Indian vegetarian corn chowder is filled with exotic flavors and spices.
Ingredients
- 2 poblano chiles
- 1 pound potatoes, peeled and diced into 1 inch cubes
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup celery, diced
- 1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced
- salt to taste
- 3 cups fresh corn kernels, or frozen corn, thawed
- 2 cups vegetable stock or water
- 1 cup cream
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
Directions
- Preheat the grill or a broiler. Grill or broil the chiles until the skin begins to blacken, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam until the skin loosens, about 10 minutes. Peel the chiles and chop coarsely. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, add the potatoes and enough water to cover and cook until tender. Drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, heat the oil, cumin, onion, celery, and pepper and sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add salt and corn and cook for 3 to 4 minutes longer. Stir in the roasted chiles, potatoes, stock, cream, curry powder, and 1 tablespoon cilantro and simmer until the soup thicken, 20 to 25 minutes.
