1
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into small cubes. Remove the stems and seeds from the red bell peppers and chop them into small pieces.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and let it cool on a paper towel. Crumble the bacon into small pieces.

3
Cook the Potatoes
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
4
Cook the Corn and Peppers
In the same pot, add the corn kernels and chopped red bell peppers. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
5
Blend the Ingredients
Using a blender or immersion blender, combine the cooked potatoes, corn, and red peppers. Add the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Blend until smooth and creamy.

6
Add Bacon
Stir in the crumbled bacon into the purée, reserving some for garnish if desired.
7
Serve
Transfer the smoked corn purée to a serving bowl and garnish with remaining bacon crumbles. Enjoy warm!
