  Could the Haddock be substituted for something else? Not necessarily Fish. I like all the other ingredients in this recipe, but not the Haddock. Can someone help? Thanks

  Hi Anna, Is it the smoked Haddock that you would like to substitute? I think prawns would work well and change the dish, or even salmon. For unsmoked Haddock any white fish could work...

  Or if you're just not keen on fish, try a pack of bacon cut into dice!

  I actually tried a vegetarian version of this without the Haddock (just the vegetables) and it turned out very well. Yummy and easy to make.

  This was gorgeous - so much lighter and less cloying than some chowders can be, whilst still being a satisfying dinner. I probably added a bit more haddock than it says here (just bought a fillet of each, didn't look at the weight) and used chervil instead of parsley as it's growing like crazy in my garden at the moment. Lovely, cheap and quick - a definite weeknight winner.

  Very tasty and it really is a light version of chowder. I used normal potato as thats all i had and didn't put leek or lentils in as didn't have any! Easy version of this classic and even better next day warmed up! A good 'base' recipe.

  Really loved this, I didn't have smoked haddock but prefer unsmoked anyway, used a piece of salmon and threw some raw king prawns in the last minute. Didn't have sweet potato so used some leftover new potatoes and added at the last stage. Very very tasty, will repeat this one!

  Yum, worked really well! I substituted frozen broad beans for lentils and simmered for just 20mins and it worked perfectly. Just cut the sweet potato into small dice and mushed it up a bit in the pan rather than blending, it was delicious!

  Easy to do and very tasty - I prepared it exactly as instructed and it was excellent! Great for cold winter evenings when you need warming up. Healthy but still filling and satisfying.

  Am on a mission to try new recipes from this site and this was my first! Really enjoyed the take of this was much more moreish than i expected so was a lovely warming treat! Did not have any leeks but did not seem to make the chowder any less tasty. Anyone had any other ideas of what vegetables can be used in this to give it extra texture? Yummy and scrummy :D
