Scottish Cullen Skink
2 lb smoked haddock, filleted 1 onion, medium, sliced 1 1/2 pints milk 2 tablespoons butter 1 pound cooked, mashed potato salt and pepper to taste
Put haddock in shallow pan, skin side down. Cover barely with cold water, bring to boil, simmer 4 minutes. Turn fish, remove skin, add sliced onion, simmer gently 10 minutes or so. Remove fish, remove bones, return to stock, simmer 20 minutes, strain. Put stock and milk in saucepan, add fish, bring to boiling point. Add enough mashed potato to reach your preferred, creamy consistency. Add butter in small pieces so it runs in rivulets through soup-stew. Season to taste, serve with toast triangles. A little cream may be added if desired.
NOTES : This is a traditional stew-soup from the Moray Firth.
