Fiskesuppe (Creamy Norwegian Fish Soup) Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 2 cups diced potatoes
  • 4 cups fish stock (or vegetable stock)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 pound mixed fish fillets (such as cod, salmon, and haddock)
  • 1 cup carrots (sliced)
  • 1 cup leeks (sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, carrots, and leeks. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

    Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  2. Add Potatoes and Stock

    Add diced potatoes and fish stock to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, until potatoes are tender.

    Make sure the potatoes are fork-tender.
  3. Incorporate Cream and Dill

    Stir in the heavy cream and dried dill. Cook for another 5 minutes to heat through.

    Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
  4. Add Fish

    Gently add the mixed fish fillets to the soup. Simmer for 10 minutes until the fish is cooked through.

    Do not overcook the fish to keep it tender.
  5. Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot.

    Pair with crusty bread for a complete meal.
