But as it's Winter, it didn't last and now it is raining and cold.
So Soup for Lunch Dear?
I had a small piece of Gurnard in the fridge... not enough for a meal
but plump it up with potato and corn
Yum, Fish Chowder
Generous helpings for two people
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, finely chopped
2 med potatoes, peeled and chopped into small cubes
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Water
1 cup frozen corn
3 cups milk approx
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
120 g white fish chopped
Sriracha Sauce, a good dash
Melt butter in a saucepan
Add onions
Season with salt
Saute till soft
Add potatoes stir well to cover with the buttery onions
A little more salt and lemon zest
Add enough water to just cover the vege
Bring to a simmer and cook till potatoes are tender
Add corn and milk and just bring to simmer again
Meanwhile
Season chopped fish with Salt and pepper and lemon juice
and let sit for about 10 minutes
When soup has just come to the boil
Turn down and add fish
Let poach gently, about 8 minutes
Taste and adjust seasoning then
Add dash of Sriracha Sauce
Thanks to Kalyn from Kalyn's Kitchen for introducing me to Sriracha Sauce
It is such a flavour booster. Beware it is quite hot so be careful
Serve
Normally I would add parsley but I didn't have any
Oh well, it was still excellent
I love gurnard! We seldom get it here but next time I shall make sure I get extra for this lovely chowder :)
