"Brazil has splendid and abundant prawns ranging from tiny shrimps to large prawns. Corn is a staple crop. The two are used together in this recipe to make a richly-flavored soup. From A Little Brazilian Cookbook by Elizabeth Lambert Ortiz."

ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup cream-style sweet corn
1 ¹⁄₄ cups chicken stock

directions

Heat the butter in a small frying pan and saute the onion until it is soft.
Combine the onion in a saucepan with the corn, chicken stock, and salt and pepper to taste.
Heat through gently, then stir in the prawns and cook just long enough to heat them through, about 1 minute.
Do not overcook as they toughen very quickly.
