Cloudy skies and autumn rains mark the beginning of the end of summer. As the weather turns colder, we turn to rich, thick, creamy soups to warm the stomach and ward off the cold. It is a good time for making this Curried Corn Chowder while fresh corn is still easily available at the grocery stores.
Curry powder and ground ginger give the Curried Corn Chowder greater flavor. The potatoes provide volume while the corn reminds us that summer is not quite done yet. There is still hope for an Indian summer before the first snow fall.

Serve this warm and comforting Curried Corn Chowder with your favorite crackers, croutons, or crusty bread.

Enjoy…..and have a wonderful day! 😎
This sounds super delicious, Biren. I love that you used fresh corn. I don't usually do that-don't tell anyone though (smile). It's really b/c the corn is so expensive here, unless I go down to an organic farm about an hour away. I did that one time this last summer…
Anyway, look yummerz and warming;)
Biren, great recipe that I have to try. We love corn chowder! This will probably be the last week for fresh sweet corn at the farmer's market. So sad. It's really chilly here this morning, around 48 degrees so this bowl of chowder would be a wonderful thing!
So comforting and delicious! I would love the curry flavor!
What a lovely chowder Biren. It looks and sounds delicious. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings…Mary
Delicious! I've been making soup this week as well!
Very comforting and delicious:)
Oh, this looks so good n sounds so delicious ! A real good fall harvest recipe for cool nights!
US Masala
WOW! A comforting soup, wish I could try some 🙂
Now THAT'S comfort food! Oh how I want a bowl right now. Believe it or not, we're already in single digit (celcius) weather here 🙁
I bet this tastes amazing with all those combined flavors. Great recipe, and perfect timing Biren. Have a lovely weekend!
I second LeQuan! this's a comfort food and my kind of soup. It's such a good dish to welcome Fall. Oh, you used fresh corn. i like it. this is full of warm spices!
Biren – what a lovely, comforting soup. Among many things, I ♥ soups and this bowl of chowder looks welcoming with the little soup crackers next to it. {Sigh} – wish we had a Fall season too. Have a fantastic weekend! 🙂
Hi Biren Love your soup recipe. I just found red corn in the market so of course I couldn't resist and brought it home with me. I'm going to make soup again this weekend, just feeling like comfort food too:)
I love that you use fresh ingredients here, even down to the corn. It has to make such a difference in the flavor!
Biren, I too make this kind of flavoured soup but I never added curry powder or thyme…..will try this one next time when I will cook this kind of soup….
We are on the same page 🙂
With corn in season, it is best to use fresh corn 🙂
I love fall and all the scents and aroma of fall. It's wonderful! I hope you have a fantastic weekend as well.
Red corn? I have only seen the dried ones. One or two red ones in the mix will make the chowder look so pretty.
I like fresh sweet corn as it is so sweet. Whenever I eat steam corn, I like it plain without butter or salt. They are delicious just the way they are.
Curry powder and ground ginger give the soup greater warmth perfect for this time of the year.
This sounds like a great recipe for me this weekend.
Have some fresh corn I'm wanting to use.
Will substitute rice flour for all-purpose as I'm gluten free.
this curry is new to me, it look so healthy and delicious!
wow I must try this…looks super creamy and comforting!
Mmmm….love this with curry flavour. Would be so good with crusty bread.
The Indian twist on a New England classic sounds fantastic! You are the queen of fusion!
I am loving the curried version of this chowder! Bookmakred!
This looks excellent 🙂
Oh yeah…how do you make corn chowder even better????? Add curry! Count me in.

Hi Biren 🙂
What a lovely dish to bid summer goodbye and herald autumn's arrival! I made something vaguely similar with squash and corn recently that I will post soon.
I find the combination of curry spices and thyme absolutely intriguing! You really have such beautiful tableware – the bowl is gorgeous, as is the plate and I have that very same spoon LOL
I hope you get your wish for a beautiful Indian summer, before autumn arrives in all her tawny glory 🙂
The soup looks very comforting Biren. Well done :)!
I love your blog. I got hungry! I surely will be going back to try some of your delectable recipes 🙂
It has totally gotten cold cold cold all of a sudden and this soup looks like the perfect way to warm up! I bet the texture is fantastic. Yum!
You can freeze the corn now and make this soup later in the cold of winter, when this soup will warm both the heart and the stomach.
Hi Biren… this looks delicious! We just made corn chowder last week and loved it. You are right the corn and potatoes just are the perfect balance between summer and fall – Have a super Monday! – Megan
I've been turning to soups for warming meals too. Your curried corn chowder looks amazing!
Hi Maan, thanks for visiting and commenting. Please visit often 🙂
Yes, I do freeze whatever is leftover as I normally buy by the dozen. Of course fresh is best 🙂
The curry spices and thyme worked quite nicely. I love thyme and use it liberally.
Thanks for the compliments on my tableware. I am an avid collector 🙂 Fall is lovely when it is dry and sunny. The weather this weekend was just gorgeous. The leaves are already changing color.
I made this recipe after seeing the pic on Tastespotting. I didn't use carrots, substituted some sour cream for the 1/2 and 1/2, veggie broth for chicken, and dried thyme. It tasted delicious! Thanks for a new way to enjoy corn from my CSA!
Hi Erica! Thanks for visiting and letting me know you enjoyed the recipe. You've made my day!
I just love soup season! And this is truly comforting and delicious, Biren! It looks super creamy and I love the curry spice in it.
This is such a lovely recipe…a beautiful chowder 🙂
