Method
- Put the chopped vegetables into a saucepan and add the stock. Top up with boiling water so the vegetables are covered. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft and most of the liquid has been reduced.
- Lightly crush the vegetables with a wooden spoon against the side of the pan (this will thicken the chowder). Add the milk, season to taste with salt and pepper and return to the heat until piping hot. Serve immediately.
Cook's tips
The key to this dish's great flavour is seasoning, so make sure you taste it before you serve it and add enough salt and pepper to contrast the sweetness of the carrot.
