SPICY CORN AND TOMATO SOUP WITH CHORIZO

This is a meal in itself, and a favourite of mine to prepare, share and consume. Ingredients.....1 tbs of canola / rice bran oil, 1 medium onion, chopped, 2 tbs of minced garlic, 1 stick of celery , chopped, grated zest and juice of 1 orange, 1 tsp of sirarcha ( chilli ) sauce, 1 kg of cherry tomatoes, chopped, 250 gm of chorizo sausage, sliced, 1 x 400 gm can of creamed corn, 125 gm of corn chips to serve, 60 gm of tasty grated cheese to serve. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. add the onion and cook until softened. Stir in the garlic and celery and cook until the celery is tender. Add the orange juice and zest, chilli sauce, tomatoes and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. while the soup is simmering, cook the sausage slices in a dry frying pan until lightly browned, drain and set aside. Blend or process the tomato mixture until finely chopped. Stir through the corn, return the mixture to the heat and heat through. This next part is optional...To complete this dish, I place the corn chips on a baking paper covered oven tray. I sprinkle the corn chips with the grated cheese and place under the griller until the cheese is just melted. Place the cheese coated corn chips a serving dish. Serve the soup topped with the chorizo slices and the cheesey corn chips for dipping. It is your dish serve it when and how you like.
