Preparation
Cook the pancetta & onion
Halve, peel and small-dice the onion. In a large pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the pancetta* and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, 3 to 4 min., until golden brown.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, medium-dice the potatoes. Roughly chop the broccoli.
Start the chowder
To the pot of pancetta and onion, add the potatoes, cream, demi-glace, 2 ½ cups water (double for 4 portions), the spices and S&P; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, 12 to 14 min., until the potatoes are tender.
Continue the chowder
To the pot of chowder, add the broccoli. Cook, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 min., until tender.
Finish the chowder
To the pot of chowder, add the peas and ½ the cheese. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the peas are bright green and tender.
Plate your dish
Divide the chowder between your bowls. Garnish with the remaining cheese and freshly cracked black pepper. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking pork to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
