One-pan tomato fish chowder
- Published: 3 Dec 20

This flavoursome, gluten-free tomato-based chowder recipe by Donal Skehan uses soffrito as a starting point. Soffritto (known as mirepoix in France), is a classic Mediterranean base of finely chopped onion, carrot and celery. These days, you don’t need superb knife skills as you can buy it pre-chopped from the frozen section of the supermarket. Finely chop half an onion, a medium carrot and a celery stick instead, if you like.
Or, make your chowder vegan and dairy-free too with this spicy cashew corn version.
