Pepian de Choclo or Corn, Chili, and Zucchini Stew (GF,V)

The hubby requested South American flavors this week. So far I made a couple old recipes, but I happened upon this one, and I'm glad I did. Quick, easy, flavorful and doesn't affect me allergy wise.

½ cup chopped fennel bulb

2 chopped garlic cloves

1 tbsp aji mirasol paste

½ cup cilantro leaves

1-2 large #zucchini, cut in cubes

Salt and pepper

Instructions

Blend the corn kernels and cilantro leaves with the vegetable stock until creamy.


In a pan with oil, over medium heat, saute the fennel, garlic, and 2 chili peppers, stirring until golden.
