Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola oil
3 tablespoons vegan butter
4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes (3/4 pound), chopped into 1/2-inch dice
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2-3 small ribs celery, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 chili pepper, such as Fresno , seeded and finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
6 ears corn, kernels scraped from cobs, or 4-5 cups frozen kernels
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup lager beer
4 cups vegetable stock (32 ounces)
1/4 hot sauce, such as Frank's RedHot, or more to taste

Steps:

Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Melt 3 tablespoons butter into the oil; stir in the potatoes, bell pepper, celery, carrots, onion, chili pepper, garlic, salt, black pepper and thyme. Partially cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 minutes to soften the ingredients. Add the corn and heat through. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute; add the beer and stir for 1 more minute before adding the stock and the hot sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Adjust the seasonings, to taste. If the chowder gets too thick, thin it with some water.
