This chowder is perfect for a cozy evening meal, and it’s easy to prepare with simple ingredients.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.
- Finely chop the celery and onion.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and translucent.
- Add the diced potatoes to the pot with the onion and celery. Stir to combine.
- Pour in enough water to just cover the potatoes.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 10-12 minutes.
- Once the potatoes are tender, add the sliced Vienna sausage and the drained sweet corn to the pot.
- Stir to combine the ingredients.
- Slowly pour in the milk, stirring constantly.
- Bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer. Do not let it boil, as the milk can curdle.
- Allow the chowder to simmer on low heat for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until all the flavors meld together and the chowder is heated through.
- Taste the chowder and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Ladle the chowder into bowls and serve hot.
Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to dice the potatoes, celery, and onions evenly for consistent texture and cooking times.
- If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can use heavy cream instead of milk or mix a tablespoon of flour with a small amount of milk to create a slurry and add to the chowder.
- Taste the chowder before serving and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to suit your preference.
- You can add a pinch of smoked paprika or a few drops of hot sauce for a bit of extra flavor.
- For a vegetarian version, simply omit the vienna sausage and replace it with a vegan sausage or additional vegetables such as carrots or bell peppers.
