Recipe: Creamy Quick Chowder with Green Leek Oil
Enjoy the smokey charred sweetcorn in this delicious chowder.
Last week Spring teased me with sunshine weather and double digit temperatures. I really thought I could start packing some of the Winter clothes away as I cycled to pick up the kids from school. Alas today I was reminded with a couple of snowflakes landing on the bike cover that was probably the stage "fool's Spring" or if I'm lucky "Spring of deception" (see this handy graphic). The dishes my heart desires are still those that warm from my toes to my fingertips.
Enter this chowder. It may not seem revolutionary, but its speed, simplicity, and flavor-boosting tricks – like charring the sweetcorn and drizzling with vibrant leek oil – set it apart. It's not your traditional chowder, but it adds that extra dimension that elevates a simple meal to something truly delicious.
