Savory seafood and potato chowder, perfect for a cozy night in.
Ingredients:
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, coarsely chopped
  • 50g streaky bacon rashers, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 60ml sherry
  • 2.50 gm smoked paprika
  • 500g Red Royale potatoes, cut into 3cm pieces
  • 1l chicken stock
  • 400g tomato passata
  • 1/2 Sourdough Baguette*, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 1 garlic clove, extra, halved
  • Tabasco sauce, to serve
  • 600g raw prawns, peeled leaving tails intact, deveined
  • 40.00 ml coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Heat half of the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion, bacon, and garlic until the onion softens and the bacon is golden brown, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
  • Turn up the heat to high. Pour in the sherry (if using) and stir while cooking for 2-3 minutes until the liquid reduces. Sprinkle in the paprika and add the potato, stirring constantly for 1 minute until well combined.
  • Pour in the stock, passata, and 1/4 cup (60ml) water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
  • Lightly coat both sides of baguette slices with olive oil spray, then lay them out on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 5 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden color. Gently rub both sides of the toasted bread with the cut side of the extra garlic clove and finish by drizzling a bit of Tabasco sauce over the top. Enjoy!
  • In a large frying pan over high heat, heat the remaining oil. Season the prawns and add them to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes or until prawns curl and are cooked through. Stir in half of the parsley.
  • Ladle soup into individual bowls, garnish with prawns, sprinkle with extra parsley, and serve alongside chili toast.
