Quick And Easy Smoked Salmon Soup
- 250 g smoked salmon, cheap trimmings are absolutely fine
- 2 -3 large red onions
- 75 75 g oil or 75 g margarine
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 pints milk or 1 1/2 pints fish stock, vary to suit preference on consistency
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
- 1 dash wine (optional)
- 1 teaspoon parsley (optional)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- Chop the onions finely, place in a pan with the butter (or oil) and saute until soft. Add the wine and lemon juice, and reduce.
- Keeping a low heat, add the flour to the buttery onions and stir in til you have a stiff onion paste. Then gradually add the milk until you have a white sauce of a consistency you want (soup will be thicker than the sauce is now, once you've blended in the salmon and onions). Add the packs of salmon and stir for 3-5 mins to warm/cook through. Blend with a stick blender until smooth. Add the parsley, season to your liking, and cook gently for another 5 minutes.
- If you like stronger tastes, just increase the quantity of salmon and/or onions as you see fit. Can substitute leeks or shallots for onions, or any other smoked fish for the salmon as you wish.
