Equipment

  • 1 medium saucepan
  • 1 Chopping board
  • 1 knife
  • 1 frying pan to sear the fish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 liter vegetable or chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 potatoes diced
  • 2 fresh corn on the cob
  • 1 lemon juice squeezed
  • A handful of dill chopped
  • A few snips of spring onions or chives
  • 1 tbsp Sour cream to finish, optional
  • 2 trout or salmon fillets
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the vegetables:

  • Peel the onion and potatoes. Dice the onion finely and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Slice the corn from the cob vertically and set aside.

Sauté the onion:

  • In a medium to large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until softened and translucent, but not caramelized.

Add vegetables and broth:

  • Add the potatoes, corn, and broth to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through but still hold their shape.

Cook the fish:

  • While the potatoes are cooking, sear the fish fillets in a separate pan (brushed with olive oil) until barely cooked, this takes 2 minutes on each side.
  • Flake the fish roughly with 2 forks.

Combine and serve:

  • Once the potatoes are cooked, add the flaked salmon to the broth and remove the pan from the heat.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Divide the chowder between bowls and garnish with dill fronds, snipped chives, and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

Notes

  • For a thicker chowder, slightly mash some of the potatoes before adding the fish.
  • Add a splash of white wine to the broth for extra flavor.
  • Garnish with more fresh herbs like lemon thyme or parsley and snip spring onions or chives for added freshness.
