This recipe is also under 'Soups, Salads & Starters', because as a 'chowder' it also counts as a soup. Anyway, this is a really great recipe, but it takes quite a while to cook. Making a full recipe will feed 3 people for about 3 days, so use a very large pot. (I always cut the recipe in half, or even thirds when possible.)
- ½ pack bacon
- 1 onion
- 3 to 5 potatoes
- Garlic
- 2 cans clam nectar
- ½ & ½ cream , 2L
- Seafood (recommended: baby clams, scallops, prawns, shrimp)
Fry bacon till crisp, add onions till soft. Add in a dash of garlic, 2 cans of clam nectar and the potatoes. Cook until potatoes are soft (for thicker chowder, cook until first 3 potatoes are dissolved completely, then add remaining potatoes, cook till soft). Add cream and turn down heat. Cook for a bit before adding seafood.
TIP: Do not let the cream boil! This is BAD!

Yea, you can leave out the bacon. Its not really a requirement, but in my opinion the bacon is what makes the chowder.
Another tip I forgot to mention (I think) is to throw some butter into the pot as you're finishing making this recipe, and let it melt. Makes a nice, buttery top layer, GREAT for dipping bread. (For dipping bread, I normally just buy these little dinner buns. They're simple, but delicious!)
