Ingredients
  • 2 spring onions
  • ½ handful/ 30g fresh coriander
  • 2cm piece of fresh ginger finely grated
  • 1 tin cream style corn

Method
  1. In a food processor blend the spring onion and coriander until it has been finely chopped, or chop finely by hand.

  3. Add the tins of cream style corn and sweet corn and the stock cube and water to the pot.

To make a chicken and sweet corn soup instead of a crab and sweet corn soup boil and chop one breast of chicken and add the chicken breast to the soup instead of the tinned crab.
