Directions

Heat oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat.

Add onion and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, 6 to 7 minutes.

Add corn and garlic; cook, stirring often, until the corn is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

Add broth and simmer until the corn is tender, 12 to 15 minutes.

Stir in salt and pepper.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer 1½ cups of the corn mixture to a blender or food processor.

Add sour cream and ½ cup cooking liquid and process until the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes.

(Use caution when pureeing hot liquids.)

Return the purée to the pan.

Whisk in cornmeal; bring the soup to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, whisking constantly, until it thickens.

Add bell pepper, scallion, parsley (or cilantro) and hot sauce; heat through.

Serve with lime wedges.
