Suam Na Mais

Suam na mais is a rich corn flavored soup from Pampanga, the original recipe uses "dahon ng sili" since it's not available in my place I used okra and talbos ng camote, it is still very yummy. It is important that we use the malagkit type of corn to attain that thick creamy texture in the soup.
