Delicious Corn Chowder

Fresh corn season is coming to an end soon, so I’d say let’s make more delicious Corn Chowder this weekend!

It’s an easy to prepare One-Pot dish, hearty, creamy, and really delicious. I used bicolor corn for mine cause it’s my favorite! Can’t get your hands on fresh corn?Just use frozen corn instead. Happy Friday everyone

Ingredients:

• 4 ears of corn, husk and silk removed (~4 cups)
• 2 medium russet potatoes (~2 cups chopped)
• 1 small red bell pepper
• 1 jalapeño (seeded for less spice)
• 1 small sweet onion (~1/2 cup)
• 2-3 garlic cloves
• 1 heaping tbsp vegan butter
• 1 can of coconut milk * (light or regular)
• 4 cups of vegetable broth (I use vegan no chicken bouillon)
• 1 bay leaf
• A sprig of thyme
• Salt and black/cayenne pepper to taste

Optional:

Fresh chives
Crusty bread

Method:

• Prepare corn, and cut off the kernels.
• Finely dice onion, garlic, jalapeño, and bell pepper.
• Peel potatoes, and cut them into small pieces.
• Heat up butter, and sauté diced onion for about 5 minutes, then add garlic, jalapeño and bell pepper, and sauté for a few more minutes.
• Add corn, potatoes, veggie broth, bay leaf and thyme.
• Bring to a boil, and simmer for 10 minutes or until potatoes are soft. Discard bay leaf and sprig, and stir in the coconut (or extra creamy oat) milk.
• Add about half of the chowder to a blender, mix until smooth, then pour it back into the pot.
• You can also use an immersion blender instead, or blend the entire batch if you prefer an extra creamy chowder.
• The chowder will thicken as it cools.
• Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black or cayenne pepper, and enjoy!
• (Makes 4 servings)

Tip: Extra creamy oat milk works instead of coconut milk as well!
