| 1. In a kettle cook the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring for 1 minute, add the onion and the jalapeno peppers, and cook the mixture, stirring, until the onion is softened. | 2. Add the cumin, the ground coriander seed, and salt and black pepper to taste and cook the mixture, stirring, for 2 minutes. | 3. Add the carrot and the celery and cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring, for 5 minutes. | 4. Add the stock, the corn cobs, and 2 1/2 cups water and simmer the mixture for 15 minutes. | 5. Add all but 1 cup of the reserved corn kernels, simmer the mixture for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the kernels are very tender, and discard the cobs. | 6. In a blender puree the mixture in batches, blending each batch on high speed for at least 1 minute, or until it is very smooth. | 7. (If an even smoother soup is desired, after using the blender force the mixture through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids.) Let the soup cool to room temperature. | 8. In a small saucepan of boiling water boil the remaining 1 cup reserved corn kernels for 2 to 4 minutes, or until they are tender, drain them in a colander, and refresh them under cold water. | 9. Stir the corn into the soup with the roasted bell pepper, the minced coriander, the cayenne, and salt and black pepper to taste and serve the soup at room temperature. | 10. Garnish with fried tortilla strips. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
