1 stalk celery - small diced pieces

1 can (370ml) Evaporated milk

1 can (142g) Whole Baby Clams with juice

8 oz cooked shrimp - cut into smaller pieces if using large shrimp. Note:- Can also use canned shrimp & the juice

2 cups milk

1 cup reserved potato water

Salt & pepper to taste

Flour & water for thickening

Directions

Place potatoes in large pot & cover with water

Add 1 tsp salt

Lay carrots on top of potatoes

Boil until potatoes & carrots are fork tender

While the potatoes & carrots are cooking, melt 1/4 cup butter in a skillet

Add the diced onions & celery to the skillet & saute until soft - set aside

When the potatoes & carrots are tender, remove from heat

Remove carrots to a separate plate & set aside

Drain potatoes, reserving the water

Return potatoes to the pot.

Push 1/2 of the potaoes to one side of the pot & mash coursely

Run a sharp knife through the other 1/2, cutting into small whole pieces

Add the sauted onions & celery to the pot, including the butter they were sauted in

Add both milks, clams & the juice, shrimp & reserved potato water

Cut the carrots slices into small pieces & add to pot

Mix all together & return to stove on medium heat

Heat until just before boiling, stirring occasionally

Season with salt & pepper to your taste

Mix flour & water together to make a thin paste & stir into soup to thicken

Thicken to your preference

NOTE:- Many types of fish can be used to vary this dish. Crab, pieces of cut up fish fillets etc. Or just add more types to the recipe above & call it a Seafood Chowder. I do quite often. Just depends what I have on hand at the time.
