Clam Chowder

Adapted the recipe here. It's a terrific recipe for clam chowder. But recently due to the email circulations of the experiments done and the scary facts on the use of microwave, I've cut down greatly on microwave cooking. Only use it to reheat some of my food occasionally.

And because microwave cooking freaks me out now, I decided to do this soup on my stove instead. Ingredients are the same. Changed only the quantity. By the way, you can also add in celery to the clam chowder. It tastes just as great.

Ingredients
100g of clams (chopped)
100g of onions (chopped)
200g of potatoes (diced)
500ml of low-fat milk (divided)
100ml of clam juice
1/2 teaspoon of butter
1 tablespoon of flour
Salt
Pepper
Bacon bits

Preparation
Melt butter in a pot.
Stir fry the onions till fragrant.
Stir flour into 50ml of milk. Pour into the pot.
Add in the clam juice.
Stir in the remaining milk.
Toss potatoes and clams into the mixture.
Simmer for an hour or till the potatoes turn soft.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish with bacon bits before serving.
