Method
Ingredients
1. Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the olive oil and 3 cloves garlic. Fry for 30 seconds. Add the corn and cook for 2 minutes.
2. Pour in the stock and cream, bring to a simmer, then stir in the turmeric and seasoning.
3. Fold in the pasta and check the seasoning, then simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Heat the canola oil in a small pan, reduce the heat to low and add the remaining garlic, paprika and chilli flakes. Fry for 1 minute to make a garlic-chilli oil.
5. Divide the soup between bowls, top with a halved soft-boiled egg or shredded roast chicken, sprinkle with chives and drizzle with the garlic-chilli oil.
Cook's tip: Use coconut milk or creme fraiche instead of long-life cream if you like.
