Sweet Corn Soup

Sweet corn soup, a nice porridge kind of filling meal with with some pan seared chicken sausages and bread  for those cosy fall night suppers. You may add the seared, sliced sausage into the soup while cooking it but I just like to eat it separately.

Ginger, pepper and red chili flakes makes the soup really hot so use it accordingly. But when u are under the weather this will definitely open up ur sinuses and make u feel good.
