step 1
In a medium saucepan, add the milk (450 ml), cream (150 ml), thyme (4 sprigs) and bay (2). Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer, add the smoked haddock (450 g) and cook for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to sit while you continue with the recipe.
step 2
Melt the butter (100 g) in a large saucepan, add the onion (1), garlic (1 tsp), celery (2 sticks) and some seasoning, then sauté over medium heat for 7-8 minutes until translucent.
step 3
Pour in the wine (150 ml), bring to the boil and keep boiling until reduced by half.
step 4
Lift out the haddock from the milk and cream and transfer to a plate. Pour the liquid into the pan with the diced veg. Add the potatoes (6) and simmer for 12 minutes until soft.
step 5
Add half of the soup to a blender or food processor with the parsley (25 g) and purée until smooth and bright green. Leave the other half of the soup chunky and mix the two together.
step 6
Flake the haddock, taking care to remove any bones. Pour any excess poaching liquid into the soup.
step 7
Heat the oil (1 tbsp) in a medium frying pan set over high heat. Add the salmon (4) and sear on both sides for about 7-8 minutes until pink in the middle. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
step 8
Pour the soup into warmed bowls, pile up the chunky pieces of haddock in the centre and top with the salmon. Pour the smooth green sauce around the outside and sprinkle with any extra parsley to serve.
