Seafood Chowder Recipes
Here are some seafood chowder recipes.
A chowder is a lovely thick soup or stew. Here I am going to give you a basic shrimp and corn chowder and will then give suggestions as to different combinations of seafood you might like to try. You can serve this as a main course with the addition of some crusty bread The stock can be either using a cube or the trimmings of any fish you have. Just simmer the trimmings for about 30 minutes, strain and use immediately. Do not overcook the stock as it can become bitter. Prawn and Corn Chowder 2 tbspns olive oil 4 oz (100g) chopped bacon or salt pork 1 onion, peeled and chopped 1lb (450g) peeled and diced potatoes 1 1/2 pints (900 ml) fish stock 12 oz (350 g) white fish, skinned, boned and cut into chunks 8 oz (225g) cooked prawns (shrimp) 8 oz (225g) canned sweetcorn salt and pepper to taste Chopped parsley to garnish Cream or creme fraiche to serve
Heat the oil add the bacon and fry until crisp. Remove and reserve the bacon and pour the oil into your soup pan. Fry the onion until softened. Add the potatoes and stock and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add the white fish and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the prawns and sweetcorn and cook for another couple of minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Pour into bowls, add a dollop of cream and sprinkle chopped parsley on top. This is excellent served with crusty bread. Smoked Fish Chowder Use 1 1/2 lbs (675g) of a combination of white and smoked fish and 4 oz prawns (shrimp).
The method is the same as the above. Remember to add the prawns (shrimp) for only the last couple of minutes or they will overcook and become tough.
