    Delicious! I have made this an number of times now and it's always better everytime. The only thing I would say is the fish and prawns can make it quite costly to make but if you are an ardent fish lover like I am it really is worth it!

    Half smoked (natural) and half ordinary haddock and prawns - delicious recipe - had chowder in many hotels around Ireland but would not hold a candle to this recipe. First time my wife ever tried chowder and thought it was brill!! Definitely recommend this!

    I have also made this many times and it's a big fish favourite of ours - especially in the winter served with crusy bread. I didn't feel the need to change anything in the recipe as it's perfect as it is.

    Yum Yum. Liked this recipe very much. I added a few peas at the end to give it some more sweetness. Very simple and quick.

    I used the chowder recipe but added mussells, praws and squid instead of haddock. I also added 2 red chillis, some lemon and a garlic clove for extra kick. It was delicious.

    Just made this for the family's supper and it was not only really easy, but also delicious. To keep the cost down I just used 250g of smoked haddock rather than 500g and added a large tin of sweetcorn to make it go further. It went down a treat with the family, even my fussy 8 year old who won't normally eat fish. Will be making this again.

    I made this for the first time yesterday. This is the chowder recipe I have been waiting for. It's so easy and adaptable. I used low fat milk and a mixture of fresh cod, smoked haddock and tiger prawns and finished it with a tablespoon of half fat creme fraiche. We ate it with my home-made brown soda bread. It was delicious and even nicer the following day.

    A really tasty soup. Used coriander instead of parsley to give it a bit of a Thai feel. So quick and easy.

    Quick and easy. I only used 250 gr smoked haddock and it was ample. Will make again and probably add sweet corn/ peas and vary the fish a little dependent on what I've got in. A comforting and warming dish.
