Sweet Potato Corn Chowder

I had some extra corn, so I thought I'd try making a sweet potato corn chowder. The sweet potatoes weren't as pronounced however, so I'm listing a modified recipe below.

- 2 large sweet potatoes (about 3-4 cups diced)
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 cup diced onions
- 2 diced leeks
- chopped garlic, ginger
- salt, pepper to taste
- corn, sliced off the cob.
- chicken broth

1. First sautee leeks, garlic, ginger.
   
2. Then add a mirepoix of celery, onions, sweet potatoes (in lieu of carrots).
   
3. Then add broth (make your own if you have time), and simmer.
4. Liquefy with immersion blender.
   
5. Add corn. I cooked my corn ahead of time, thus requiring only a few minutes to meld in the soup.
   
6. Enjoy with corn bread. Top soup with a little creme fraiche and chives/green onions.
