Sweetcorn Smoked Haddock Chowder Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large saucepan until melted. Add the onion, celery and potatoes, and cook gently for 10 mins until the onion is really soft.
• Pour in the chicken stock followed by the milk and stir well. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 15 mins, stirring occasionally. Season to taste. Add the sweetcorn, then place the haddock fillets on top. Let the mixture simmer very gently for 5 mins or until the haddock just starts to break up.
• To serve, carefully stir in half of the parsley, ladle the chowder into individual bowls and scatter with the remaining parsley at the table.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large saucepan. Tip in the bacon, then cook until starting to brown. Add the onion, cook until soft, then pour over the milk and stir through the potatoes. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 mins.
• Add the haddock, then leave to gently cook for another 10 mins. By now the fish should have defrosted so you can break it into large chunks. Stir through the sweetcorn, then cook for another few mins until the fish is cooked through and the sweetcorn has defrosted. Scatter over parsley, if using. Serve with plenty of crusty bread.

Steps:

• Put the onion and potatoes into a large sauté pan. Pour over the vegetable stock and simmer for 6-8 mins until the potatoes are soft, but still have a slight bite. Add the chunks of smoked haddock. Tip in the creamed corn and add the milk - if you like a thinner chowder, add more.
• Gently simmer for 5-7 mins until the haddock is cooked (it should flake easily when pressed with a fork). Sprinkle over the parsley, if using, then ladle into bowls.

Steps:

• Put the fish in a deep frying pan with the bay leaf and 600ml/1 pint boiling water. Cover and simmer for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave to stand, covered, for a further 5 minutes. Drain, reserving the liquid, then flake the fish.
• Heat the oil and butter in a deep saucepan. Add the vegetables and garlic and fry over a high heat until starting to soften. Stir in the thyme and the reserved cooking liquid and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes until the vegetables have softened.
• Pour half the soup into a bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork. Return to the pan with the milk and fish. Simmer for 3 minutes, taste and season if needed. Sprinkle with chopped parsley to serve.
