Never Fail Potato and Corn Chowder

[Pyrrhic]

I LOVE this. It is so simple and tastes great. If I'm making a pot my friends always somehow turn up on my doorstep


1 medium onion
4 medium white potatoes
2 stock cubes
tin of creamed corn
milk

(I use a cast iron soup pot for my soups which I think makes it taste better, but who knows!)

• Finely chop onions, and cube potatoes
• Make up stock in measuring jug (I do one stock cube per pint)
• Heat a little oil in a saucepan and add the finely chopped onions. Allow onions to soften (not brown)
• Add potatoes and add enough stock to just cover potatoes.
• Allow to simmer on a low heat until stock is reduced. (This is important. If you just add loads of stock it will ruin the soup. You need to reduce it all down)
• Keep adding and reducing stock until the potatoes are softened and a desired consistency is reached. (I like my chowder thick)
• Add in one can of creamed corn, and some milk
• Salt and pepper to taste

It is really easy Sometimes I just use sweetcorn if I don't have any creamed corn in the house and it works well too.
