Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 1.5 lbs) Russet potatoes
- 2 cups Sweet corn kernels, fresh or frozen
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 2 sliced Celery stalks
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 4 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or low-fat milk for WW)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small cubes. Set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sliced celery to the pot, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and smoked paprika, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced potatoes, corn, and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring everything to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Using a ladle, carefully scoop out 2 cups of the chowder (with some of the potatoes and broth) and blend it in a blender or with an immersion blender until smooth.
Return the blended mixture to the pot, stirring it back into the chowder to create a creamy texture.
Stir in the almond milk (or low-fat milk), and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Simmer the chowder for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
