  1. Fry the bacon in a little oil in a pan - as soon as it starts to colour, add the onion and potato and cook until the onion starts to soften. Add the stock and milk and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes or until the potato is tender, then add the sweetcorn and heat through. Season and stir in the chives.

    For consistency, I added a carrot, parsley and celery root. It was worth it. 5*

    Nice but needed some tweaking. I'd read before cooking that it was a little thin so I doubled the amount of sweetcorn and blended half to make creamed corn. This helped to thicken the sauce although I still needed to add a small amount of corn flour. Substituted onion for leeks which worked well.
