A simple seafood chowder is one of the most comforting things on a chilly Winter day. I personally love this soup with lots of shellfish like mussels and clams, but you can just use fish if you aren't a fan. Melt the butter in a large pot over a medium-high heat. Hearty and warming, chowder is a creamy soup with potatoes that really fights off the winter chill.

Make it with sweetcorn and smoked haddock in Nigel Slater's easy recipe, or add clams and prawns. Hence a Galway seafood chowder recipe may be very different to a Dingle seafood chowder recipe or even a Donegal seafood chowder recipe. The recipe will follow the fish, but they all taste great and are all super creamy. Just make sure the fish is the kind with nice meaty type flesh, like haddock or salmon that does not need lots of cooking until it falls apart. In a Dutch oven, heat butter over medium-high heat.
