Ingredients

2 onions

1 stalk celery

1 red pepper

1 yellow pepper

1 baking potato

400g frozen sweetcorn

290g can borlotti beans, drained and rinsed

1tsp ground cumin

1tbsp Asda Chipotle Paste

2tbsp Asda Mexican style Jalapeños

1 clove garlic, crushed

2 reduced-salt vegetable cubes

100ml single cream

3 spring onions, sliced

1 large avocado, peeled and diced

1 jalapeño chilli, sliced

10g Grower’s Selection Coriander

Method

1
Switch the slow cooker to the high setting and leave to heat up.
2
Chop onions and celery. Deseed the red pepper and yellow pepper and chop. Peel and dice the baking potato. Add to the slow cooker with the frozen sweetcorn and the borlotti beans. Sprinkle the veg with ground cumin then add the Chipotle paste, Mexican style jalapeños and the garlic clove. Stir well to combine then pour over 1L hot stock, made with the vegetable cubes. If the stock doesn’t quite cover the vegetables, add a little more water.
3
Cover with the lid and cook for 4 hours on high, or 8 hours on low.
4
About 10 mins before you’re ready to serve the chowder, stir it well – break up the potato but don’t mash it. Add single cream then heat through on low for the last 10 mins.
5
To serve, ladle the chowder into 6 bowls. Sprinkle with a garnish made from spring onions, avocado, jalapeño chilli and coriander.
