Raining outside, wind howling... what a miserable day!
In the mood for a hearty soup. What’s better than a seafood chowder: creamy silky soup with prawns, haddock and cod.
I wanted to use my new dishes and I’m pretty happy with how the colours of the chowder go so well with the green.
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 carrot diced
- 1 celery sticks diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 medium waxy potato diced

- 100g haddock cut into cubes
- 100g salmon cut into cubes

- 100h large prawns
- Coriander for garnish
- Toasted sourdough to serve
Method:
1. Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat then add the onions , garlic followed by carrots , celery and potato. Then add the fennel seeds and thyme and sweat them for 10 minutes.
2. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 mins to get rid of the flour taste. Pour in the fish stock and simmer for 10 minutes . Add the milk and the nutmeg and then add the fish mix and simmer for another five minutes .
