Instructions

  1. Make the bisque: melt the butter in a pot over medium heat and soften the onion and garlic for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the corn and stock, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in the cream and smoked paprika, then blend until smooth with a blender or immersion blender. For a silkier texture, pass it through a sieve. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
  3. Cook the crab cakes: heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the cakes straight from frozen for 6 to 7 minutes per side, until golden and heated through.
  4. Ladle the bisque into shallow bowls, set a crab cake in the centre of each, and finish with chopped chives or a drizzle of chive oil and a little cracked pepper.
