Ingredients

Directions

Saute the onions in the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat until they just begin to brown.

Add the garlic and saute for a minute, stirring constantly.

Pour in the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they give up their juice. Cover and continue cooking about 5 minutes more.

Add the water and corn to the soup and cook until the corn is soft and the kernels lose their raw taste, about 5 minutes.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the basil, mix well, remove from the heat, and serve immediately.
