Directions:• In a medium sauce pot over medium heat, heat the oil until hot but NOT smoking.
• Add the diced bacon to the pot and allow to brown and slightly crisp.
• Add the onion, celery and minced garlic to the pot and stir until they become translucent. Add the small diced potatoes and stir to incorporate.
• Sprinkle the flour into the pot and whisk until well combined with the oil in the pot. Allow the mixture to bubble.
• Add the minced clams along with the broth from the can. Allow the juice to come to a slight simmer then add the whole milk and the evaporated milk. Turn the heat up to medium high and continue to stir.
• Allow the soup to come up to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, turn down the heat and allow to simmer 15 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked. Check the consistency of the soup, if too thick, add a little water. If too thin keep simmering until it becomes slightly thicker.
