I have used frozen corn kernels in this recipe but you can use either fresh corn or canned corn kernels as well.If you are making this soup using fresh corn then boil or steam corn cob, remove kernels using a knife.
You can use any other vegetables of your choice like mushrooms ,cabbage, bell pepper or green peas.I have also prepared corn paste at home but you can also used canned creamed corn available in the market But i personally prefer taste of homemade sweet corn paste in this soup and its healthy.
You can lightly flavor soup with vinegar ,soya sauce and some chilli sauce for spicyness.
