Corn Vegetable Soup
Corn Vegetable Soup is a creamy corn soup with vegetables is a great starter for a summer lunch. This delicious soup can be served hot or cold. Serves 4.
- 2 ¼ cup corn
- 1 medium tomato
- 1 cup cabbage (finely chopped)
- 8 to 10 string beans
- 1 small carrot
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp oil
- ½ tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (adjust to taste)
- Chop cabbage, carrot, and string beans into very small pieces.
- Chop tomato in small pieces and remove the seeds. Set aside.
Boil the corn in about 1 ½ cups of water until the corn is soft. Remove ¼ cup of corn and set aside.
- Blend the rest of the corn into a paste and strain.
Mix the cornstarch with ¼ cup of water and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan. Test the heat by adding one cumin seed to the oil; if seed cracks right away oil is ready.
Now add the cumin seeds. After the cumin seeds crack, add the carrot, cabbage, beans and ¼ cup of water. Cook the vegetables on medium heat until they are tender.
- Next, add the corn paste, corn, cornstarch mixture, and two cups of water to the vegetables. Bring the soup to a boil add tomatoes and lower the heat to medium low. Let the soup cook for another five minutes. Add the lemon juice and serve.
Suggestions
- Corn soup can be refrigerated for about a week and can be frozen for months.
- If you have decided to freeze or refrigerate the soup hold the water you were adding.
- Add the water at the time ready to use the soup.

February 28, 2010 at 9:43 pmHi Manjula ji,
Don’t you need to add salt or any species to the soup. And when do you add tomatos to the soup.
Thanks And you rock !!!

February 8, 2010 at 11:58 amDear Mrs. Manjula,
Thanks so much for your recipes! Your site is my go-to recipe box for fast weeknight meals.
My husband loves your corn soup, and has modified it a little to give it an Indo-Chinese twist. At the end he adds a little each of soy sauce, hot pepper sauce, and rice vinegar– then he proceeds to eat the entire batch! Your sabudana khichiri, spicy squash (using frozen suran), and mushroom peas are also all big hits!
thanks again!

February 25, 2009 at 9:00 pmI made this soup last night and it was the best i’ve ever had! I did not have fresh corn, so i substituted a can of creamed corn, pureed in the blender. It was especially good tonight when i added some of the zucchini rice to it. Thank you for sharing

January 23, 2009 at 12:32 pmDear Manjula Aunty,
In the recipe, you have mentioned to add 3 cups of water but in your video you just add one cup.

December 29, 2008 at 11:45 amDear Manjula:
I tried this recipe, minus tomatoes and string beans because I didn’t have them at the time. And I substituted with green peas, and the soup turned out delicious and nutritious! Absolutely will recommend to friends! Thanks you so much for the easy recipes! PEACE!

Jaya
June 23, 2008 at 2:34 pmAunty Ji, is my comment below correct?
Now that I look at it again, I can’t figure out clearly what you do with the liquid that comes from straining the blended corn.
Please clarify. Thank you.
Jaya
June 23, 2008 at 2:31 pmCooking Note:
If you don’t watch the video you need to know that in Step 8 the “corn paste” is actually the liquid left over from straining the blended corn in Step 4.
Jaya
June 21, 2008 at 12:54 pmNice creamy soup. Thanks Manjula Aunty.
I’m in US and used canned corn, specifially Del Monte brand “Fresh Cut Whole Kernel Corn”. Easy to find in most American grocery stores. The taste is better than frozen corn. (Note: canned corn is already cooked and doesn’t need additional cooking like fresh or frozen corn.
Drain the liquid from the can and discard as it contains salt OR if you use the liquid from the canr, remember to reduce the salt added to the soup.
