New Zealand seafood chowder
Creamy chowder for 4, with clams, mussels, prawns and white fish. Total time stated by the reference source: 35 minutes.
This version retains the dish named in the title. The available evidence supports a creamy seafood chowder, but does not document a specifically New Zealand formula; it is therefore not presented as the country’s only authentic version.
Method
- 01
Steam the bivalves open
Wash the clams and clean the mussels. Put them in a covered pot and steam until they open. Remove the meat from the shells and set it aside.
- 02
Soften the vegetables
Melt the butter in a pot. Add the onion and carrot and cook until soft.
- 03
Build the creamy base
Stir in the fried tomato sauce and flour, and briefly cook while stirring. Gradually pour in the hot stock, stirring to blend in the flour.
- 04
Add the milk
Pour the milk into the pot and stir. Let the mixture simmer gently before adding the shellfish and fish.
- 05
Finish the chowder
Add the prawns, white fish and reserved clam and mussel meat. Cook until the prawns and fish are done, then serve hot.
