Chicken soup with charred corn and courgette

I haven’t met many people that don’t enjoy tucking into a hearty bowl of “caldo de pollo” or, chicken soup. Some of the best I’ve had have been when meandering through municipal markets in central Mexico. Although it’s very hard to beat the humble classic caldo de pollo, I’ve added some chargrilled courgette and corn. Not only does it add some extra nutrients, which is always a good thing but the chargrilled veg take on a slightly smokey flavour which is a great addition.
