Ingredients
  

For the Creamy Base
  • 2 cups Fresh Sweet Corn Kernels Use fresh or frozen
  • 1 can Full-fat Coconut Milk Canned for best texture
  • 1/2 cup Water or Light Coconut Milk To balance richness
For Flavor and Sweetness
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar Optional
  • 1 pinch Salt Enhances flavors
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Adds warmth
Optional Garnishes
  • 1/4 cup Toasted Coconut Flakes For crunch
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Fresh Herbs (like Mint or Basil) For freshness
  • 1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup Optional for sweetness

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Small skillet

Method
 

For the Creamy Base
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine fresh sweet corn kernels, full-fat coconut milk, and water. Warm gently over medium heat until steaming, about 3 minutes.
  2. Bring to a gentle simmer, then stir in sugar and salt. Cook until flavors meld and mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Let rest for 5 minutes off heat, allowing flavors to deepen and texture to set.
For Garnishing
  1. Meanwhile, toast coconut flakes in a small skillet over low heat until golden brown, 2–3 minutes, stirring to prevent burning. Remove and cool.
  2. Spoon warm sweet corn and coconut milk into bowls, sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes and fresh herbs or drizzle honey as desired.
