Ingredients
- 0.5 tablespoon vegan butter or light oil
- 1 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 ribs celery, chopped
- 0.5 yellow onion, chopped
- 1.5 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.13 cup all-purpose flour (use all-purpose gluten-free flour if preferred)
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 1.5 large white or yukon gold potatoes (about 1 1/2lbs) peeled and diced (4 cups chopped)
- 1 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cups non-dairy milk (such as soy or almond)
- 1.5 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 0.5 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
- 0.5 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 0.13 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. When hot add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables just start to soften and the onion turns translucent and begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour and thyme over the vegetables and stir to coat. Continue to stir and cook for about a minute until the flour starts to brown. Stir in the potatoes, vegetable broth, non-dairy milk, and nutritional yeast. Bring to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender and the chowder has thickened, about 8 minutes.
- Lastly, add in the corn and season with salt and pepper. If your chowder gets too thick, you can always thin it with water or a vegetable broth to the desired consistency. Serve hot.
