Amber's CLAM CHOWDER

INGREDIENTS
2 cans (6 & 1/2 oz size) minced clams
1 cup onions
2 cups diced potatoes
3/4 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup flour
1 quart Half & Half
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup chopped celery
pepper

DIRECTIONS
Drain juice from clams. Pour over chopped vegetables in a saucepan, add water until veggies are just covered and simmer until potatoes are cooked. In mean time, melt butter, add flour and stir together, add Half & Half (this part burns easily so have everything measured out beforehand), cook and stir until thick. Add undrained vegetables and clams and stir until it thickens again. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
*I also add a can of corn at the end.
