Trisha's seafood chowder

Trisha's seafood chowder This I love, it is not as heavy as a full-on cream chowder, but it is unreal with some homemade soda bread and butter. Ingredients Serves 4 people 1 tbsp butter 1 tbsp olive oil 1 onion, finely diced 3–4 cloves garlic, crushed 2 sticks celery, diced 2 carrots, diced 1 small red chilli, finely diced (seeds optional) 1 handful chopped tomatoes (fresh or tinned) 200g smoked fish (haddock, cod, or similar), diced 200g raw prawns 300g mussels, cleaned 300ml fish stock 200ml cream 1–2 tbsp lemon juice 2 tbsp chopped dill Salt & pepper Method Heat butter and oil in a pot. Add onion, garlic, celery, carrots, and chilli. Cook until softened. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook 2 minutes to break them down. Pour in the fish stock and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the smoked fish and cook 5 minutes. Add the mussels and cover with a lid; cook 3–4 minutes until they open. Add the prawns and cream, stirring gently until prawns turn pink (2–3 minutes). Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and stir in the chopped dill. Remove unopened mussels before serving. Serve with crusty bread.
