Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Soften the vegetables

    Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the onion and leek and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and thyme.

  2. 2

    Cook the potatoes

    Add the potatoes and fish stock. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 10–12 minutes until the potatoes are almost tender.

  3. 3

    Add the fish

    Stir in the pollock and sweetcorn. Simmer gently for 4–5 minutes until the fish flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Finish the chowder

    Pour in the milk and heat gently without boiling. Stir in the cheddar until melted and smooth.

  5. 5

    Season and serve

    Season with salt and black pepper. Finish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Leek

If leeks are unavailable, use spring onion plus a little regular onion for a similar mild allium flavour.
