Corn Chowder

1 lb. bacon, cut into one-inch pieces (or less bacon, if you prefer, and I do)
1 onion, chopped
3 large potatoes, cut into cubes
2 c. water
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 cans of canned corn, with water (I've used creamstyle corn too)
1 can evaporated milk
1/4 c. flour
1/2 c. water
Paprika

Brown bacon in large pot. Let drain on paper towel. Drain all but 2 tbs of bacon grease. Brown the onion in bacon grease. Add the chopped potatoes, 2 cups water, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes. Add corn with liquid and canned milk. Mix 1/4 cup flour in 1/2 cup of water until smooth. Add to soup. Add the bacon and sprinkle with paprika.

Makes about 6 servings
