Easy vegan corn chowder
A simple and delicious filling corn chowder that can be made with fresh corn in season or frozen kernels all year round
Ingredients
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 medium potatoes cut into small chunks
- 2 fat cloves garlic finely chopped
- 400 ml vegetable stock
- 1/2 tsp chilli flakes optional
- pinch celery salt
- 400 ml dairy free milk of choice
- 2 cobs sweetcorn, kernals removed or 300g frozen sweetcorn
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a couple of tablespoons of water in the base of a large pan. Add the onion and potato with a pinch of salt. Sauté on a low heat with the lid on for 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute before pouring in the stock. Sprinkle in the chilli flakes and celery salt and stir well. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for 10 minutes with the lid on until the potato is soft.
- Add the sweetcorn and dairy free milk. Bring back to the boil then simmer for another 5 minutes until the sweetcorn is cooked. Keep an eye on the pan though as the dairy-free milk might boil over.
- Turn off the heat. Using a stick blender, whizz the soup until half is pureéd but leave a little texture. Season with salt and pepper then serve with a little extra chilli on top if you like it spicy!
