Instructions
Prepare the broth
In a large pot, bring 3 litres of water to a boil. Add Old Bay seasoning, salt, and lemon halves.
Pro tip: Squeezing the lemon into the water before adding enhances the citrus flavour.
Add the potatoes
Add the halved baby potatoes to the boiling broth. Cook for 10 minutes or until slightly tender.
Pro tip: Test with a fork; they should be easy to pierce but not mushy.
Cook the sausage
Add the sliced sausage to the pot and cook for 5 minutes.
Pro tip: Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Add the corn
Add the corn pieces and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Pro tip: Make sure the corn is submerged for even cooking.
Add the shrimp
Gently add the shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
Pro tip: Remove from heat immediately to prevent overcooking the shrimp.
Serve
Drain the stew and serve hot, garnished with a sprinkle of additional Old Bay seasoning if desired.
Pro tip: Serve with lemon wedges for an extra zesty kick.
Tips & Tricks
