I love myself a good bowl of corn chowder!! Had this one for dinner today and thoroughly finished it with some dipping bread. It's also suitable for vegetarians / vegans as well. So it'll be something good to serve for small meet-ups with friends who may have varying dietary needs. :) Here are some pretty high-res photos too.
CREAMY CORN CHOWDER
Total Prep Time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4 persons
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Yellow Onion, diced
1 Red Pepper, diced
2 sticks of Celery, diced
1 medium Potato, peeled and diced
3 tablespoons Flour
1 cup Soy/Almond/Oat Milk
2 cups Vegetable Broth
1 teaspoon Celery Salt
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
1 teaspoon Dried Parsley
4 ears of Corn, shucked
1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Salt/Pepper, to taste
Chopped Green Onion, for garnish
Cilantro, for garnish
Extra bits of Corn and Red Pepper, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
-
In a large pot, heat olive oil. Sautée Onion, Red Pepper and Celery for 10 minutes or until soft.
-
Add diced potato and mix well. Once mixed, add in flour and stir to coat veggies. Cook for a minute or 2 before adding your Non-Dairy Milk of choice and Vegetable Broth.
-
Add Celery Salt, Smoked Paprika, and Dried Parsley into the pot. Stir well and then bring to a boil. Once at a boil, reduce to simmer, cover pan with a lid and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, or until potato bits are tender.
-
Once potato is tender, add shucked Corn kernels and stir to combine. Let cook for a further 5-10 minutes or until corn is tender to your liking.
-
Transfer ¼-1/3 of the soup to a blender (depending on how thick you want the chowder) and blend till smooth. Pour back into the pot and stir well.
-
Stir in Apple Cider Vinegar and taste for/adjust seasoning before serving. Top with chopped Green Onion, Cilantro and extra bits of Corn/Red Pepper.
Let me know if you give this a try! I also tossed in a little chili powder to spice things up :) Suitable if you like your chowder with a little bit of spicy bite!
bon appetit
