That looks easier to make in a pot! And quicker too.

You're welcome poohbearfan3.As I indicated in #2 above I have used that recipe but the following one is the one that I usually use, mainly I guess because it was in an earlier book of Alison's so had become a fav before I saw the recipe at #2 - we like it with the potato and for speed, I make the sauce in the microwave while the vegetables cook on the stove.
Alison Holst's CORN CHOWDER 1 carrot 1 potato 1 onion or leek 1 cup water 2 tsp instant bacon stock 50g butter 3 tbsp flour 1 x 450g can whole kernel corn 1 cup milk
Scrub then cube the carrot and potato.Cook the potato and carrot with the chopped onion or sliced leek in the water for 10 minutes or until the potato is tender.Stir in the bacon stock. In another pot melt the butter, add the flour and make a sauce using the corn liquid made up to 2 cups with milk. Stir the sauce into the cooked vegetables.Mash or puree if desired, then add the corn. Serve with toast or crisp bread rolls as a complete meal.Top with grated cheese if desired. Serves 3-4.:-))
