The flavor of curry is subtle in this creamy, comforting chowder. For fun, I sometimes sprinkle individual servings with pumpkin or sunflower kernels. Ingredients:
3 cups cubed peeled sweet potatoes |
2/3 cup finely chopped green onions |
4 teaspoons butter |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
3 cups milk |
2 cups frozen peas, thawed |
1 cup half-and-half cream |
Directions:
1. Place 2 in. of water in a large saucepan; add sweet potatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 7-9 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
2. In a skillet, saute onions in butter until tender. In another large saucepan, combine the flour, curry powder, salt and pepper. Gradually stir in the milk until smooth. Add the sweet potatoes and onions. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in peas and cream; heat through (do not boil). Yield: 6 servings.
