Prawn and Corn Bisque

Serves 4 Prep Time 5 minutes   Cook Time 30 minutes   Rated:

We looked for crab. Fresh crab, (out of the shell already) is very hard to find in Perth. If you can find it, by all means make this a Crab and Corn Bisque. Though Prawn and Corn Bisque has a bit of a ring to it we think!

A bisque is a creamy French soup, usually based around seafood, often using the blended shells of the seafood used in the soup to thicken it. It also must have wine in it to classify...as a bisque or as French, pretty sure! This is delicious, we didn't do any of the crustacean shell blending thing, though I have to say that the Thermomix does that very well. See my Seafood Chowder recipe for example.

We went the easy purchased fish stock route, but if you did have some amazing fish stock hidden away, this is the time to get it out. This recipe would be outstanding if you used homemade fish stock.

Enjoy!
