Seafood Chowder is often thought of as complicated and only something for a special occasion. Here at my house it is a perfect weekend lunch time recipe that is really filling and delicious. The chowder has a rich, creamy but very mild base perfect for kids.
I have chosen fish which again is very mild and accessible. There is no shellfish in this recipe just in case of allergies.
These chowder can be made in under 30mins and is delicious served with wholemeal bread . Have a look at our super easy Foodoppi Soda Bread recipe to go with this. A perfect family meal that works great for weaning too. Emilia is 9 months now and loves this.
The best thing about this recipe is it simple and it works.
P.S It freezes great too as long as all your fish is fresh to begin with.
With fun & deliciousness,
