- 1 lb smoked haddock fillets
- 2 medium leeks, washed and thinly sliced
- 2 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the leeks and garlic, cooking until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the potatoes, fish stock, thyme, bay leaf, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Add the smoked haddock fillets to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Poach until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the bay leaf and gently break the haddock into chunks with a spoon.
Stir in the milk and heavy cream, heating the chowder gently without letting it boil.
Season with salt to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
