Method 5 steps
Drain the can of corn, reserving the liquid.
Put half of the corn into a bowl and purée it with a wand blender, adding some liquid from the can if necessary to keep it from getting too dry.
Pour puréed corn into a saucepan and add remaining whole corn kernels.
Add the diced bell pepper, butter, and cream, then heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally. You can add more cream or milk if it's not creamy enough.
Salt and pepper to taste.
