Indian Scented Smoked Haddock Chowder

A wholesome stew made with fragrant Indian spices, smoky haddock and creamy coconut milk. Chowder is a traditional dish from New England, but we have added a few exotic twists to make for an irresistible and highly recommend dinner. Smoked haddock can be a little salty, so you may want to soak it in water for a few hours before cooking.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

The bulk of the work in this recipe is prepping the veggies, so we recommend that you do this first. Cut the potato, sweet potato, carrot, celery and onion into 1cm dice. Slice the smoked haddock into roughly 4cm pieces. Thinly slice the garlic and make up the fish or chicken stock.

Step 2

Place a large casserole dish or sauté pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced vegetables and sweat (to cook without colour) for about 10 minutes, until softened.

Step 3

Next add the curry powder, turmeric, chopped garlic and green chilli (if using), and cook for another minute or so, until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the stock and coconut milk and season well with with salt and lots of black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by a third, about 10 minutes. You want the vegetables to be tender but still holding their shape.

Step 5

Once the veggies are tender, reduce the heat to its lowest setting and gently add the fish. Poach for 2-3 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat, then stir through the chopped coriander and lime juice. Serve in shallow bowls and enjoy while piping hot.
