This is my version of the fish chowder from the Company's Coming cookbooks. It is the authentic Atlantic provinces style. Serve with Spelt Biscuits or your own.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup hard margarine
1 cup chopped onion
2 cups diced potatoes (or so)
2 cups boiling water (enough to cover potatoes)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 bay leaf
2 lbs haddock fillets, cut bite size
1 cup whipping cream
Directions:
1. In a large pot, melt butter. Add onion and sauté until soft.
2. Add next 5 ingredients; cover. Cook until potatoes are tender-crisp. Do not overcook. Remove bay leaf.
3. Add fish; cook for about 5 minutes until fish flakes when tested with a fork.
4. Stir in cream; heat slowly, stirring often, until steaming hot.
