Corn Chowder 2

I used to do a corn chowder which was basically potato-leek-corn chowder.

Start with a good vegetable stock, add lots of cubed potatoes and some lightly sauteed, coarsely chopped leeks. A bit of garlic goes well, and maybe a bit of thyme, you can add that to the leeks while they are sauteeing. Add some salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Cook til the potatoes start to melt, then add corn (preferably fresh, if not, then frozen or canned; if canned, drain it first). Cook for another 10-15 minutes. You can swirl a bit of sour cream in for texture if you like after you take it off the heat.

I think I may make this for dinner tonight... I bought leeks last night on a whim............. I was thinking of doing a scalloped potato with leek gratin. Guess I'll have to see which the DH would prefer.
