Instructions

1. Sauté aromatics
   In a pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds.

2. Add potatoes
   Toss in the diced potatoes and cook 1 minute to coat them with butter.

3. Make the chowder base
   Sprinkle flour over the potatoes. Stir well to coat — this thickens the soup.
   Slowly pour in the milk and broth, stirring constantly.

4. Simmer
   Bring to a gentle simmer. Cook 10–15 minutes until potatoes are tender.

5. Add tuna & spinach
   Stir in the tuna, breaking it into chunks. Add the chopped spinach. Simmer 2–3 more minutes until spinach wilts.

6. Add cheese
   Reduce heat to low. Stir in the shredded cheese until melted and the chowder becomes creamy.
   Add cream if using.

7. Season
   Add paprika, thyme (optional), salt, and pepper to taste.

8. Serve
   Ladle into bowls and serve with crusty bread, crackers, or garlic toast.
