A warm, delicious and flavourful soup which you can pair with a crispy homemade garlic bread all in 15 minutes – this miso sweetcorn soup & herby garlic bread seems too good to be true! This is a hearty and whole meal that’s great for the whole family. You can also make your miso sweetcorn soup vegan by using silken tofu instead of egg whites.

Making a main meal with multiple components (both soup and garlic bread) in 15 minutes might seem like a challenge, but the key is in the method. When it comes to being efficient with time in the kitchen, it’s all in the sequence of what you cook, when and how.

Time Efficiency in the Kitchen

This miso sweetcorn soup & herby garlic bread recipe makes both a delicious soup and a warm garlic bread in only 15 minutes by making both alongside each other. Having certain ingredients pre-chopped and stored in the fridge is also a great way to increase time efficiency. I always keep a pot of chopped garlic in my fridge. Whilst the soup simmers, get started on your garlic bread. By the time the garlic bread finishes in the oven, the miso sweetcorn will be finished too – a two in one recipe for a filling main meal.
