Corn Chowder

1 small Bermuda onion, finely chopped (1 cup [1/4 liter])
2 1/2 cups (625 ml) water

5 tablespoons (75 ml) butter
2 cups (1/2 liter) hot milk
salt and coarsely ground pepper
cayenne pepper
1 cup (1/4 liter) heavy cream

Place the corn in a large (4 quart (4 liter) saucepan.  Pour in 1 cup
(1/4 liter) of the water, and the chicken broth.  Place on low heat,
bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minues.  Stir occasionally.

In the meantime, boil the potatoes in the remaining 1 1/2 cups (375 ml)
of water until tender, or for about 15 minutes.  Drain.  Gently cook the
chopped onion in 4 tablespoons (60 ml) of the butter, without browning,
