When my friend proposed this recipe in a college food tech lesson, I was a little bit sick in my mouth. I decided that maybe I was wrong and gave it a try. That was officially the end of my life. After I ate that demon spawn of a dish, I fell into a deep depression and a few weeks later sold my children into white slavery..

Wow what a gorgeous recipe. This is a real keeper. I made it as per the instructions but added few more potatoes and a bit more haddock to make it a very substantial chowder that made a very filling supper served with crusty bread. All takers loved it. Definitely one to make again and again.
