Seafood Chowder with Winter Root Vegetables

When I do this again I think I will omit the crab and just us cod. The Old Bay seasoning made it very tasty with a kick.

·         2oz shrimp

·         1 cod fillet

·         1 8oz can crab

·         1/2 small carrot chopped

·         2 ribs celery chopped

·         1/2 onion chopped

·         garlic granules

·         4 florets cauliflower (frozen works too)

·         1 tsp old bay seasoning

·         ½ pint Veg or Fish Stock

·         2 Tbsp Cream

  Serves 2

In a large stock pot, melt some butter on medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, celery, cauliflower, and carrot. Cook for 3-4 minutes.

Add the stock and old bay and cook another 10 minutes till vegetables tender.

Turn heat down so that broth bubbles very gently, and add the cod. Cook until cod is flaking apart and cooked through, 10 - 15 minutes. Add the crab and cream, and cook until heated through. Taste again and add additional salt and/or pepper.

At this point, add the shrimp and warm through.
