Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups fresh corn kernels
  • 4 cups peeled and diced potatoes
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • ½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Directions

Step 1
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add butter and melt. Stir in onion and garlic; cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Turn off Saute function.

Step 2
Add corn, potatoes, vegetable broth, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to the pot; stir to combine. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Step 3
Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 15 minutes. Release any remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove 1 cup of potatoes and corn to a bowl. Mash with a fork and return to the pot.

Step 4
Select Saute function again and pour in heavy cream. Cook until soup has thickened to desired consistency.

Cook’s Note:

Frozen corn may be substituted for fresh, if desired.
