Instructions

1
Warm the Palm Oil in a heavy casserole and brown the corn well on all sides — real colour means real flavour.

Lift the corn out, soften the onion and garlic in the same pot, then add the smoked paprika.
3
Return the corn, tip in the potato and carrot, and pour over the stock.
4
Cover and let it murmur gently for 35-40 minutes until everything is spoon-tender and the broth has body.
5
Season with salt and cracked pepper, then shower with fresh cilantro right before serving.

Chef's tip

For deeper flavour, toast the smoked paprika in the oil before adding anything wet.
