To prepare the filling, combine 4 tablespoons of the softened butter with the flour in small bowl. Set aside. In a separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the cream. Set aside. In a large saucepan, add two tablespoons of butter and saute the onion, carrot, and celery over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes. Add the broth and the potatoes, and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the vegetables are just tender. Add the butter and flour mix and bring to a gentle boil, constantly stirring. Pour in the cream and cornstarch mixture and simmer gently. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chicken, corn, and peas. Cover and let cool. inspired by I FOOD Blogger
