2-3 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
1 carrot finely diced
2 potatoes finely diced
50gm flour
milk
salt and pepper
500 gm mussels
1. pour stock in pan and bring to the boil
2. reduce heat until liquid is simmering and add wine
3. in another sauce pan add butter and melt on a medium heat
4. add onions, saute till soft and stir in garlic, carrots and potatoes for ten minutes
5. add stock and reduce liquid by 1/3
6. mix flour into milk and add to soup till thick
7. cook mussels and roughly chop.
8. add to chowder and nomnomnom
sorry the milk doesnt have a measurement. I wrote don 1.5 L but my flatmate and I decided it was wrong because that seemed like a lot of milk. We ended up adding milk/flour till the soup reached the thickness we wanted.
sorry there are no pictures, we made this last night and there's only half a pot. I think we're going to make more tonight or something.
Its really good. It was worth the hour I spent in borders looking through cookbooks till I found a recipe that was thick and creamy looking.
Its soooo goood. I had two bowls for breakfast this morning.
