20 Minute Prawn and Corn Chowder Recipe

Okay, who’s ready for a DELICIOUS yet quicky and easy 20 Minute Prawn and Corn Chowder Recipe?

Hello folks.

Although I have not been blogging much, I have been painting the kitchen red. For someone who cooks/bakes a lot, I am also someone who skips breakfast, forget to eat lunch, too busy to eat kinda person. I am just not hungry when I’m busy, and meals in a day seem to pass by completely unnoticed. Who’s with me?

Sighs, but my friends, what can I say, there’s just something about soups that would prompt me to grab a bowl and spoon no matter how busy I am. Be it a classic chicken soup or a creamy one like this, it is always a game-set-match for me. I think it’s completely possible now that I think about it for me to just live on just soups. It is the epitome of back to basics, hearty comfort food.

Personally, I am not a fan of super thick soups. I like it relatively loose and creamy, yet also be brothy enough to slurp and I can dunk some good crusty bread in. If you cubed up the bread and toss it in some butter + EVOO + garlic + black pepper + mixed herbs, you would be a rock-star in everybody eyes. I mean people keep asking as to how I make such amazing croutons. #notexaggerating

So yes, back to this soup, I love how there is no crazy ingredients in here, just good old potatoes, onion, garlic, prawns..etc. This soup is so yummy yum and filling, most importantly it keeps well in the fridge for tomorrow’s lunch. Yesterday’s dinner is today’s lunch. My mantra and aspirational way of life.
