450g smoked cod or smoked haddock (undyed)
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp light olive oil
50g butter
2 onions , finely chopped
2 leeks , halved lengthways and thinly sliced
3 celery sticks, thinly sliced
sweetcorn kernels from 1 corn-on-the-cob, or 140g/5oz frozen sweetcorn
900g potato , peeled and diced
3 garlic cloves , crushed with 1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme or ½ tsp dried thyme

Steps:

  • Put the fish in a deep frying pan with the bay leaf and 600ml/1 pint boiling water. Cover and simmer for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave to stand, covered, for a further 5 minutes. Drain, reserving the liquid, then flake the fish.
