Clam Chowder
Ingredients:
- 1 can minced clams
- 1 small can evaporated milk
- 2 to 3 potatoes
- 1 small onion
- 1 tbsp. butter
- salt
- pepper
- 1 stalk celery
Instructions: Drain the clams. Use the juice plus enough water to cover the vegetables to boil the potatoes, celery and onions. Add the butter, salt and pepper and cook until the potatoes are tender. Add the clams and the evaporated milk and heat just to the boiling point.
Notes:
To make the chowder thick, you can mash the potatoes a little before adding the milk and clams. If you are not concerned about fat and cholesterol, you could fry a couple of pieces of bacon to sprinkle on top when ready to serve.
