Ingredients

  • 3 Essential Sweetcorn Cobs
  • 25g Essential Butter
  • 1 large fennel, chopped
  • 1 Essential Onion, chopped
  • 400g Essential Potatoes, cut into small dice
  • 2 vegetable stock cubes
  • 4 tsp Cooks' Ingredients 3 Chilli Paste
  • 150ml pot Essential Single Cream
  • ½ x 25g pack coriander, chopped
  • 100g wholegrain or white bread, torn into small pieces

Method

  1. Cook the cobs in a large pan of boiling water for 5 minutes. Remove to a plate, reserving the cooking water. Melt ½ the butter in a separate saucepan and gently fry the fennel and onion for 5 minutes to soften. Add the potatoes, crumbled stock cubes and 800ml of the sweetcorn cooking liquid. Cover and cook gently for 10 minutes.

  2. Cut the kernels from the cobs using a sharp knife. Add them to the chowder, along with the chilli paste, 100ml cream and most of the coriander, reserving a little for serving. Cook gently for 10 minutes.

  3. Melt the remaining butter in a small frying pan and fry the bread over a low heat until lightly browned, turning frequently. Ladle the chowder into bowls and serve topped with the croutons, reserved coriander and a drizzle of leftover cream.

Cook’s tip

For a slightly thicker textured soup, use a potato masher to break up the potato once softened.
