Finnish Salmon Soup

olive oil (15 ml)

butter (15 grams

leek (washed and sliced)

carrots

garlic (minced)

white wine (optional) (60 ml)

potatoes (cubed) (250 grams)

salt (to taste)

pepper (to taste)

broth (fish

heavy cream (35% Fat Content)

dill (fresh and finely chopped)

Cut the leek lengthwise in half making sure not to cut all the way through. I like to fan out and open it and wash the inside.

Once washed, cut the leek into slices.

Now, add olive oil and butter to a pot on the stove. Heat it up and add in the leeks and carrots. Sauté for a few minutes until translucent.

When the veggies have completely softened, add in the garlic and cook for about a minute.

Next, add the white wine and let it cook off completely. The veggies should be jammy and flavorful.

When the wine has fully cooked off, add the potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Pour in the broth and bring it up to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and semi cover it. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft.

In the meantime, cut each skinless salmon filet in half, and cube it.

After 25 minutes, add the cubed salmon and heavy cream. Let the fish poach in the soup for 5 minutes. The Salmon will cook quickly and doesn&#39;t need a lot of time.

Take the soup off the heat, add in the fresh dill and garnish with lemon slices! Enjoy.

So good, so good, so good! Another winner from the Modern Nonna! We served ours with homemade Irish brown bread!

This was great!!! Easy and just perfectly delicious!!!  Had leftovers with a maroulosalata on the side for lunch next day.  Salad was divine and easy!!!!

Wow! So delicious. 
My whole family loved it!
I made almost double the portion by using 2 containers of veggie stock, 2 leeks, a bunch of carrots, and loads of salmon

Why oh WHY does everyone NEED to have a vegetarian or vegan option? It is NOT Finish Salmon Soup without salmon!

Made this for dinner tonight. Nice soup. The only thing that I can complain about is the amount of time it takes to make. It definitely takes more than 40 minutes lol.
