Sweet Corn Soup Recipe with Ginger, Garlic, Turmeric, and Chilli Oil

This sweet corn soup recipe with ginger, garlic, turmeric, and chilli oil is a sweet, perfumed, gently-spiced Southeast Asian-style soup made for the summer corn season that was partly inspired by Chinese egg drop soup and partly by the Southeast Asian ingredients of ginger, garlic, turmeric, and galangal we love so much.
