Quick Clam Chowder
- 1 can Clams (Canned)
- 1 large Onion
- 2 medium Potatoes
- 3 Carrot
- 3 stalks Celery
- 50 grams or 100 grams Ham or Bacon
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 100 ml White wine
- 4 tbsp Flour
- 800 ml Milk
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 10 grams Chicken consomme
- 2 tbsp Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 as much (to taste) Heavy cream
- This is the can of clams that I used.
- There is clam meat and juice inside.
- Separate the clams and the juice.
- Cut all the ingredients.
- Cut the carrots into smaller cubes than the potatoes, and if you cut the celery even smaller, it will turn out great when boiled.
- Saute the onions with 3 tablespoons of butter.
- I used ham, but if you use bacon, saute to make it crispy, and use that oil to cook the onions.
- If there is not enough bacon fat, add butter.
- When the onions are softened, add the celery, carrots and garlic powder and continue cooking.
- Add white wine, and keep on high heat.
- Add potatoes and ham, and cook for a bit.
- Add 4 tablespoons of flour into the pot and continue cooking while stirring to prevent sticking.
- Add milk, clam juice and chicken consomme, stirring occasionally.
- Lower the heat when you start to see movement (Do not let it boil).
- This is the chicken consomme I used.
- It is in granule form.
- When the vegetables are 80% cooked, add the clam meat.
- When the soup is at the right thickness, add powdered Parmesan cheese.
- You may also add heavy cream if you like.
- Sprinkle your favorite herbs on top and the dish is done!
- Enjoy with crackers or delicious bread.
