Instructions

  1. Drain the corn. Peel and finely dice the onion. Peel, rinse and dice the sweet potato.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan (soup pot) and sauté the onion cubes until translucent. Then add the corn together with the sweet potato cubes, cook for about 2 minutes and then deglaze with the tomatoes and 1 liter of water. Stir in the vegetable stock, bring everything to the boil and simmer covered for 15 minutes over a low heat.
  3. Finely grate the peel of the lime and then squeeze the lime. Remove about 1/4 of the soup, set aside and finely puree the rest of the soup in the saucepan. Stir the lime zest together with the lime juice and whipped cream into the soup and bring to the boil again.
  4. Add the soup you set aside and the tortellini and heat them up in the soup. Rinse the basil, shake dry, pluck the leaves from the stems and cut into strips. Season the soup with a little salt, a few turns of colored pepper from the mill and a little cayenne pepper and sprinkle with the basil on top.
  5. Fresh baguette goes well with it.
