Beaufort Chowder Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large pot halfway with lightly salted water; bring to a boil. Add onions and carrots; cook until slightly tender, 10 minutes. Add potatoes; cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in salmon, cod, scallops, shrimp, lobster, and crab; cook over medium heat until salmon and cod are firm but chunks are still slightly translucent in the center, about 10 minutes. Drain half the water from the pot and add clams, heavy cream, and half-and-half. Place butter chunks atop the soup; season with salt and black pepper. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until salmon and cod are fully cooked and flake easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Tip the potatoes into a small saucepan and cover with cold salted water. Bring to the boil over a medium heat , then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-6 mins until just softened. Drain and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat and cook the celery and shallot for 3 mins until softened. Add the garlic and fry for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Stir in the flour and cook for 1 min. Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour in the milk, whisking until you have a thick sauce. Stir in the stock and simmer for 2 mins until the sauce has thickened slightly again.
• Tip in the fish, vegetables and cooked potatoes, and simmer for 4-5 mins until the veg has defrosted (if frozen) and the fish is cooked through. When the mixture is creamy and coats the back of a spoon, add the lemon zest and juice and up to 50ml water if the chowder is too thick. Season with black pepper, salt and the parsley.
• Pour the chowder into a bowl, top with more black pepper, the extra parsley and serve with crusty bread, if you like.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook the beef, celery and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the milk, potatoes, soup, carrots, salt and pepper; heat through. Stir in the bacon just before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat, then add the onion and bacon. Cook for 8-10 mins until the onion is soft and the bacon is cooked. Stir in the flour, then cook for a further 2 mins.
• Pour in the fish stock and bring it up to a gentle simmer. Add the potatoes, cover, then simmer for 10-12 mins until the potatoes are cooked through.
• Add the mace, cayenne pepper and some seasoning, then stir in the milk.
• Tip the fish pie mix into the pan, gently simmer for 4 mins. Add the cream and shellfish, then simmer for 1 min more. Check the seasoning. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve with some crusty bread.
