Corn Chowder
Lush, rich, and with a depth of flavour… that’s how I like to describe this corn chowder. My mates love it, especially when it’s served with yummy garlic bread and a drizzle of olive oil. It’s such a wonderful meal that really allows corn to shine and show its glory.
The main advice I can give you to make sure that you nail this recipe is not to blend the entire mixture. Just blend half because chowder is the best when there is some texture in it. I love to add sliced spring onions and fresh coriander and parsel as they complement the corn flavour really well.
Don’t wait, make this beauty today and send loads of love to all our farmers who work so damn hard to grow corn and allow us to enjoy such epic meals.
