4 cups vegetable stock
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/3 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
Directions:
1. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
2. Fry the onion for about 10 minutes until translucent and golden, stirring occasionally.
3. Add the corn and chili pepper and continue frying about 5 minutes, again stirring occasionally.

5. Transfer 2/3 of the soup to a food processor and whiz to a coarse puree. Add back into the pan and stir in the lemon juice and parsley. Taste for seasoning.
6. Serve with a spoonful of sour cream and more parsley, if desired.
