  • Total Time: 0 hours

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • Wild caught salmon trimmings (bones, fins, and other parts of fish used for the stock)
  • 1 liter of water
  • bay leaf
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 leek (white part only)
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 medium parsnips
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 stalks of celery
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp thyme leaves
  • 1 cup plant milk
  • fresh greens

Instructions

  1. To make the broth, place the soup mix in a pot, cover it with cold water, and bring it to a boil. Once the broth is boiling, skim off any foam, reduce the heat to low, add salt, a bay leaf, and simmer for about 30 minutes.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed, deep skillet, heat the coconut oil. Over medium heat, sauté finely chopped leeks and garlic. Add diced parsnips, carrots, and celery stalks, and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour the broth into the skillet, add lemon juice, thyme, and bring it to a boil. Cover and reduce the temperature to low, and cook for another 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Transfer 2/3 of the soup to a blender and blend it on high speed until smooth.
  5. Pour the blended soup back into the skillet, add pieces of fish, coconut milk, and cook for a few minutes until it’s lightly simmering.
  6. Serve sprinkled with lemon juice and garnished with finely chopped herbs.
