Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup finely chopped leeks
1 1/2 cups diced, peeled boiling potatoes
3 cups milk
2 whole smoked trout, about 7 ounces each, skinned and boned
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream (optional)
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a large, heavy saucepan. Add leeks and saute until tender but not brown.
  • Add potatoes and half the milk. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until potatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Using a fork, roughly mash the potatoes, leaving some pieces, then add remaining milk.
  • Break the trout into one-inch pieces and add it to the saucepan. As the soup cooks and is stirred, the pieces will become smaller.
  • Simmer about 15 minutes. Taste for seasoning and season judiciously with salt and generously with pepper. Stir in the cream if desired.
  • Serve at once or reheat before serving and sprinkle chives on top.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chowder turned out too salty. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This chowder is a bit too creamy for my taste. I might try using less cream next time.

I'm not a fan of dill, so I left it out of my chowder. It was still delicious.

I used frozen corn instead of fresh and it worked great. This chowder is so versatile.

This is the best chowder I've ever had! The trout is so tender and flaky, and the broth is so flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of fish, but this chowder changed my mind. The smokiness of the trout pairs perfectly with the creaminess of the chowder. I'll definitely be making this again.
