vegan corn chowder

Inspired by this and this recipe, I made some vegan corn chowder!

In hot pan (or instant pot on saute mode), add 1 TB avocado or canola oil
saute  1 diced yellow onion with 1/2 tsp salt until browning. 

Add 2 stalks celery, diced, and 3 cloves garlic, diced.  Deglaze pan with 1/4 C dry white wine.  

Now add: 
1 can diced mild chili peppers like hatch
2 small potatoes, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
bay leaves
veg broth or water 

Pressure cook for 5 minutes at high pressure, or cook on stovetop until potato is fork tender. 

Open pressure cooker, add 4 C frozen corn, stir into hot soup to thaw the corn. 
Scoop some of the mix into blender and blend with 1/4 C cashews. 
Pour back into the pan, add chickpeas or white canelini beans.  Heat until warmed through. 

garnish: chopped cilantro and finely diced red onion

Serve with corn bread or warm corn tortillas.
