  I have made a similar soup before. I add a little saffron and some sweetcorn sometimes. It makes it a lovely golden colour. Also, one day I used a package of kippers that needed to be used up instead of the smoked salmon and it was gorgeous. It gave a lovely smoked flavour without being overwhelming. The smoked salmon trimmings are good for this recipe, much cheaper.

  I also made this as a practise before Christmas and it was delicious. A friend has also made it and she really enjoyed it too. I ran the blending stick through mine before adding the salmon and it worked fine. Will definitely be making it again, very tasty.

  Delicious and very easy to make. I added two green chillies to give it a kick and at the end added some prawns. Thumbs up all round from my dinner guests.

  YUM! Tried it once and planning to use it for Xmas when hubby's family is around. Adding a slight bit of turmeric and cayenne for a subtle bite. Halving the potato and replacing with kumera/ sweet potato. Maybe adding small lobster-tails?? Very recommendable recipe!!!

  I really like this recipe - very tasty! Also it can easily be adapted for vegetarian friends as the smoked salmon can be added after the soup has been cooked and, of course, by using veg stock instead of chicken.

  I made this last night. We had it with focaccia bread and it was heavenly. I made a couple of changes.. 1. Substituted bacon for salmon as I did not have any salmon. I dry fried the diced bacon before adding to soup. 2. Added 150 ml double cream instead of 100 ml Highly recommended

  Fantastic dinner party starter! Stuck to the original recipe however, replaced the double cream with low-fat cream. This recipe is easy, can be prepared ahead of time and tastes special. Oh and the fresh chives are essential!

  I made this soup using single cream instead of double and instead of using smoked salmon, i chopped up several fillets of salmon to make this a main meal. This was absolutely delicious! My guests loved it! Amazing recipe!

  I made this more like a thick chowder by reducing the amount of stock and using single cream. It was absolutely delicious and is now one of my favourites. It's great to find simple recipes that are both tasty and nutritious

  This is a great winter recipe, real comfort food on a chilly day. We followed the recipe as is, but might try it with single cream next time

  Such a quick & easy recipe. I added sweetcorn, because it would be rude not too :-)
