How To Make ~ parmesan potato chowder ~
-
Step 1In a Dutch oven, bring water to a boil. To this add potatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, salt, pepper and celery. Simmer until vegetables are tender.
-
Step 2While veggies are cooking, make the white sauce. In a medium saucepan, add butter, melt over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, leaving no lumps, stirring constantly for a few minutes.
-
Step 3Slowly add in the milk and stir often until thickened. Stir in parsley. Set aside.
-
Step 4Once veggies are tender, add corn. Next stir in Parmesan cheese until melted.
-
Step 5Pour in the white sauce, stir until thoroughly combined. Taste for seasoning, add if needed. I added a little Cajun spice to ours. Can add clams, shrimp or even crab for a nice chowder. Yum! Glad I decided to try this with Parmesan...delish! Note: this will thicken quite a bit when cool, just reheat by adding some milk or water.
