ingredients
FOR THE 'CHOWDER'

1½ lb - smoked haddock

10 fl oz - chicken stock or fish stock

5 fl oz - white wine

7 oz - raw tiger prawns (or jumbo prawns)

7 oz - sweet corn

3½ fl oz - double cream (heavy cream)

  - salt and pepper

FOR THE MASH

1½ lb - mashed potatoes

1 oz - butter

3½ fl oz - double cream (heavy cream)

¼ teaspoon - freshly grated nutmeg

  - cooked clams

2 teaspoons - fresh chopped chives

directions
  1. Place the stock and the wine in a large frying pan, heat to a gentle simmering and poach the haddock for five minutes. Remove the haddock, place it on a tray, cover in foil and keep warm.
  2. Bring the cooking liquid up to the boil and reduce by half. Add the tiger (or jumbo) prawns, sweet corn and cream, then season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Meanwhile, cook and prepare the mash (left-over mash will work just fine if you heat it in a microwave). Peel and chop the onion, heat the butter in a pan and gently fry the onions for 4-5 minutes to soften them. Add the mashed potato, creamutmeg and beat together.


  4. To serve, put a pile of mash on the plate, sit some haddock on top, add the clams, pour over the sauce and sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve immediately.
