Description

A warm, creamy, and filling corn chowder that can be made with fresh or frozen corn.


Ingredients

  • 4 cups corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium potatoes, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped chives or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until softened.
  2. Stir in the diced potatoes and corn, and cook for a few minutes.
  3. Pour in the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender.
  4. Use an immersion blender to blend a portion of the soup for a creamy texture, or blend in batches in a regular blender.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Garnish with chopped chives or parsley before serving.

Notes

For a richer flavor, sauté the onion until lightly browned. You can make this dish dairy-free by using substitutes.
