Haddock fish soup

Ingredients:

Preparation

Fill the haddock fillet with cold water and bring to a boil. Then add the peeled, chopped onion to the fish and cook. Strain the finished broth, pour milk into it and boil again. After this, add the fish slices and cook the soup over low heat for 3-4 minutes. We peel the potatoes in advance, boil them, mash them into puree and put them in the soup. Salt, pepper, pour into plates and decorate with herbs.

Step 1: prepare the leeks.

Leeks are much more tender than regular onions and we use them in our dish to give it a delicate onion taste and aroma. We wash the leek stems under running water and place them on a cutting board. Using a knife, cut the component lengthwise into two halves. And then we chop each half into thin half rings. Transfer the processed leeks to a free plate.

Step 2: prepare the celery.


To prepare our dish we only need celery stalks. Therefore, before we use this part of the plant, use a knife on a cutting board to cut off the leaves from it and set them aside. Rinse the vegetable ingredient under running water. Then, using a sharp tool, chop the celery stalks crosswise into small pieces and immediately after that, transfer them into a bowl with the chopped leeks.

Step 3: prepare the onions.


Using a knife, peel the onions. Afterwards, rinse the ingredient well under running water and transfer it to a cutting board. Using a knife, cut the vegetable into two equal parts. And then, using the same sharp equipment, we cut each of them first along and then across into small pieces. Transfer the processed ingredient into a container with other crushed ingredients.

Step 4: prepare the garlic.


Place the garlic cloves on a cutting board and, using the handle of a knife, lightly press down each clove so that you can easily remove the peel.
To prepare our dish, you don’t have to chop the ingredient, but simply press the handle of the knife again on the already peeled cloves, and thereby allow the garlic juice to release, which will give a pleasant aroma during the preparation of the fish soup. After this, we transfer our ingredient to a plate with other finely chopped vegetables.

Step 5: prepare the turnips.


Turnips are very rich not only in vitamins C and PP, but also in minerals. Due to the essential oil that the vegetable is rich in, turnips will give our dish a unique and distinctive taste. We thoroughly rinse the root vegetable under running water and, without removing the skin, transfer it to a cutting board. Using a knife, first cut the turnip lengthwise into two halves, and then cut each half into two parts again and, using the same sharp equipment, cut the vegetable crosswise into small cubes. Afterwards, transfer the crushed component to a free plate.

Step 6: Prepare the carrots.


Peel the carrots using a knife and rinse well under running water. On a cutting board, using the same sharp utensil, cut the root vegetable crosswise into small circles and transfer to a plate with turnips.

Step 7: Prepare the parsley.


Rinse the parsley under running water and transfer to a cutting board. Using a knife, finely chop the ingredient and then transfer it to a separate plate.

Step 8: Prepare the haddock.


Haddock is a marine fish from the cod family. The fillets of this fish are prized for their protein. Soft, white, dietary and tender fish meat goes well with the vegetables and spices that we use in the soup. Take the fish fillet out of the refrigerator and place it in an empty bowl. The fish meat should defrost on its own to room temperature. It cannot be defrosted under hot water or heated in a microwave oven.
After the fish is defrosted, transfer the fillet to a cutting board and use a knife to cut it into medium pieces. Transfer the chopped haddock to a clean plate.

Step 9: prepare haddock soup.


Pour olive oil and butter into a thick-bottomed pan using a tablespoon.
Then we transfer chopped leeks, onions, celery stalks and garlic cloves into this container from a plate using the same cutlery.
Add a tablespoon of salt to the vegetable mixture, and constantly stirring all the ingredients with a wooden spatula, simmer them for about 5-7 minutes over medium heat.
Then, after the allotted time, put the chopped carrots and turnips from the plate into the same container, and immediately mix everything well with a spatula until smooth.
Afterwards, fill all the ingredients with the required amount of water, add salt, and again mix everything well with available equipment.
Then add parsley, bay leaf and thyme sprigs to the container. Since we will later remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs from the dish, we do not mix these components with the bulk of the fish soup. During the cooking process, these spices will add a pleasant, unforgettable aroma to the dish.
Then, using a tablespoon, carefully place the haddock fillet into the pan and cook our dish, covered, for 30 minutes on low heat. Attention: Since the fish fillet is very tender, it also does not need to be mixed with other components of the dish, so as not to spoil the appearance of the fish. It is enough to place the ingredient on the surface of the liquid mass. When the soup is ready, using the same cutlery, remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs from the surface of the dish.

Step 10: Serve the haddock soup.


Pour the fish soup into a tureen and serve hot. Using a ladle, pour the fish soup into plates.
You can also add finely chopped parsley or dill to your fish soup. Separately, you can serve pies or kulebyaka with fish. Bon appetit!
