Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Peel the potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2 cm cubes. Rinse them in cold water to remove the starch.

  2. Cook the onion

    Finely chop the onion. In the nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat without letting it brown. Add the onion and cook for 3 min until translucent.

  3. Add bacon and potatoes

    Cut the bacon into small pieces. Add them to the skillet with the potatoes and cook for 2 min, stirring. Sprinkle with the flour and mix well.

    Tip · To keep the flour from making lumps, mix well after sprinkling it in and cook for 1 min before adding the milk.

  4. Add the milk

    Add the milk to the skillet along with the thyme. Bring to a gentle boil, then lower the heat and simmer covered for 10 min, until the potatoes are tender.

  5. Add corn and fish

    Drain the corn and add it to the skillet with the frozen pollock fillets. Cook for 5 min over low heat without stirring so the fish doesn't break apart.

    Tip · If the fish isn't cooked enough after 5 min, give it 2 min more max over very low heat.

  6. Adjust the seasoning

    Taste and adjust with salt and pepper if needed. The chowder should be creamy but not too thick.

  7. Serve hot

    Divide the chowder between two bowls and serve right away.
