Arahan

In a medium pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add carrots, onions, and dried thyme (if using) to pot and cook until onions have softened, about 7 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add fresh thyme (if using), bay leaf, salt, smoked paprika, potatoes, and stock/water to pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and liquid has reduced about a third.

Stir in heavy cream and add Worcestershire sauce/fish sauce. Taste to adjust seasoning, then add in corn. Return to a simmer, then add in seafood. Continue to simmer, gently poaching seafood until just cooked through and flaky, about 5 minutes. Top with fresh herbs to finish. Enjoy while warm.
