Many people found the combination of milk and fish a bit weird but this dish is 1000% worth trying and is definitely a favourite! Perfect for the cold weather. 🍲

I’ve been to Scotland 4 times and every time I go, I make sure to have Cullen Skink.

I thought it’d be more complicated to make, but I challenged myself and decided to give it a go.

I followed Tom Kitchin’s recipe with a few tweaks.

Steps

45 minutes

1

You can use dyed smoked haddock, I think the main difference is that the undyed keeps the white-ish colour of the soup.
2

First thing, place the fish as a whole in the milk OFF THE HEAT, skin side up, and set aside
3

Dice the onion and leek. Peel and cut the potatoes into small cubes. Make sure they’re all small equally cut cubes so they cook evenly around the same time.
4

Now put the pot in which you have the milk and fish on medium heat
5

In another big pot melt butter with a drizzle of oil, and start cooking the onion, with a pinch of salt until translucent but not brown! Add the leeks and cook for 2-3 minutes before you add the potatoes
6

Back to the milk and haddock - before the milk starts boiling, take the fish out very carefully and place it on a plate. The fish should be almost cooked.
7

Shred the fish, keep the skin, pour the hot milk over the veggies with the fish skin as it’s full of flavour + extra smokiness! Let everything simmer gently for 10 minutes
8

With a masher, roughly mash the potatoes. Mashing some of the potatoes will give the soup a nice thicker texture.
9

Add the fish when the potato is cooked, and let it simmer for an extra 5-7 minutes.
10

Taste and add salt and black pepper as desired. And that’s it! (You can now remove the fish skin if you like as it’s not edible)
