Heat olive oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onion, celery, garlic, potato cubes, sweetcorn (except reserved for salsa), chopped chilli, thyme, and smoked paprika together for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften and the spices release their aroma.

Using a stick blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Keep warm while you prepare the salsa topping.
