Ingredients
  

3 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4-5 ears) or frozen corn

2 medium zucchinis, diced

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream for a richer flavor)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil or chives for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

    Add Zucchini and Corn: Add the diced zucchini and corn kernels to the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is slightly tender.

      Pour in Broth: Add the vegetable broth and smoked paprika to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes to blend the flavors and soften the vegetables.

        Blend the Soup: Remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. (Alternatively, transfer to a blender in batches and blend carefully.)

          Stir in Coconut Milk: Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the coconut milk (or heavy cream) until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat through for a few minutes.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing with fresh basil or chives. Enjoy warm!
