Potato and Fresh Corn Chowder in Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 6 Yukon or red potatoes, chopped
  • 4 ears corn (kernels removed from cob)
  • 1/4 onion, diced
  • 1 stalk celery, diced
  • 1/2 bell (red or green) pepper, diced
  • 3 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 3 cups coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons corn starch
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 slices bacon, cooked and broken into topping sized pieces
  • chives, chopped for garnish
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. Set Instant Pot to sauté and add butter to melt. Add diced onions, celery and bell pepper and cook until soft.
  2. Add vegetable broth, potato and corn. Add a pinch of salt. Close the lid and steam valve. Set pressure to high for 10 minutes.
  3. When done, do a quick release, carefully lifting the lid when the steam is gone. Whisk together cornstarch with 2-3 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Set Instant Pot to saute and allow mixture to come to a boil. Add cornstarch mixture to pot and stir. Slowly add coconut milk and cheese, stir until thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve topped with bacon pieces and chives on top.
  4. Tip: When reheating leftovers, add more broth, coconut milk or water for the right consistency.
