In a large saucepan combine fresh or frozen corn, potato, onion, bouillon, and pepper. Bring to boiling, reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 10 minutes or till corn and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the milk and the margarine or butter. Combine the remaining milk and flour.
