Cod and Corn Chowder
- 50g new potatoes, chopped
- ½ tbsp butter
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tbsp olive oil
- ½ sliced leek
- Pinch of salt
- 1 sweetcorn cob, kernels removed and cob reserved
- ½ tbsp flour
- 100ml whole milk
- 400g cod fillet
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- ½ lemon, juice only
- Boil the potatoes for 6 mins or until cooked but still with a little bite, then drain and set aside. Add the butter, oil and pepper to the pan and cook the leek with a pinch of salt for 3 mins to soften. Stir in the flour and sweetcorn kernels to form a paste, then slowly add the milk and 150ml water. Pop the empty corn cob in the pan and stir in the potatoes, then bring to a simmer.
- Add the cod to the soup, simmer for 5 mins, then discard the corn cob and gently flake the fish. Season, stir through the parsley, and serve in bowls with crusty bread and some more black pepper sprinkled on top.
