Famous Recipes - Tuna and Cheese Chowder

Most of us think that canned tuna is only for tuna salad and casseroles. Most of us are wrong. I offer this quick and easy soup as proof.

Tuna and Cheese Chowder

3 Tbs (45 ml) butter or olive oil 1/2 onion, chopped 1 rib celery, chopped 3 Tbs (45 ml) all-purpose flour 2 cups (500 ml) fish or chicken stock 2 cups (500 ml) milk 1 7-oz (200 g) can tuna, drained 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) shredded cheddar cheese Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Heat the butter in a pot over moderate heat and saute the onion and celery until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 minutes. Add the stock and milk and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add the tuna and cheese and cook until the cheese is melted, stirring frequently. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serves 4 to 6.
