Corn & Prawn Chowder

Easy meal great for kids! - by Barbara Northwood
  • 09 Apr 2019
Corn & Prawn Chowder
Prep: 15 Minutes - Cook: 25 Minutes - Easy - Serves 2 - low-fat
Proudly supported by

In season, use fresh sweetcorn. Canned or frozen will do the trick the rest of the year. You can also use chicken instead of prawns if you prefer.

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

½ onion, finely chopped

150g potato, cut into small cubes

300ml whole milk

200ml chicken stock

150g cooked small prawns, drained

195g can sweetcorn, drained (or the same weight of frozen)

1 large wholemeal pitta bread

1/2 tbsp garlic butter

small pack chives, snipped (optional)

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan. Fry the onion until it softens but don’t allow it to brown. Add the potato, milk and stock, and bring everything to a simmer. Cook for 10 mins or until the potato is soft, then gently squash some of the potato against the side of the pan to thicken the chowder. Add the prawns and sweetcorn, and cook for another 5 mins. 

  2. Meanwhile, spread the pitta with the garlic butter. Grill the pitta until it browns a little, then cut into strips. Serve the soup sprinkled with chives, if you like, with the garlic pitta on the side to dip.
