Hello Ken,
See below.
Phaed
Cullen Skink
Ingredients:
A large smoked haddock (weighing around 2 lb)
1 medium onion, finely chopped.
11/2 pints (900ml) milk
2 tablespoons butter
8 oz mashed potato
Salt and pepper
1 bay leaf
Chopped parsley
Water
Triangles of toast (as an accompaniment)
Method
Cover the smoked haddock with water, in a shallow pan, skin side down.
Bring to the boil and simmer for 4/5 minutes, turning once. Take the
haddock from the pan and remove the skin and bones. Break up the fish
into flakes, return to the stock and add the chopped onion, bay leaf,
salt and pepper. Simmer for another 15 minutes. Strain, remove the bay
leaf but retain the stock and fish. Add the milk to the fish stock and
bring back to the boil. Add enough mashed potato to create the consistency
you prefer (don't be afraid to make it rich and thick!). Add the fish and
reheat. Check for seasoning. Just before serving, add the butter in small
pieces so that it runs through the soup. Serve with chopped parsley on top,
accompanied by triangles of toast.

Cullen Skink
Ingredients
1 LB (450 g) Smoked Haddock Fillet
2 Tablespoons Parsley Chopped
2 oz (50 g) unsalted Butter
1 Onion Finely Chopped
1 LB Floury Potatoes
2 Pints (900 ml) Milk
Preparation
Start by chopping the onion, melting the butter in a saucepan and gently
frying the onion until soft, but not brown. About 10 minutes.
Whilst this is going on, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1/2 inch dice.
when the onion is cooked, add the milk to the pan, bring to the boil and
then add the diced potatoes. Bring back to the boil and simmer until the
potatoes are cooked. About 20 minutes, say.
Add the smoked haddock fillet to the soup, and leave it to simmer for 5 to
7 minutes until just cooked. Remove the haddock and put to one side unit it
has cooled a little, then flake it roughly, discarding any skin or bones.
Crush some of the potatoes against the side of the saucepan in order to
thicken the soup slightly. Return the flaked haddock to the soup, add the
parsley and warm through. Taste the soup and add salt and pepper if you think
it needs it.
If you are feeling extravagant, you could also add a little double cream
