Fish Stew with Fennel and Baby Potatoes

This elegant fish stew with fennel and baby potatoes is a wonderful way to enjoy fresh, seasonal flavours in a light yet comforting meal. The combination of delicate white fish and aromatic fennel creates a sophisticated flavour profile, while the sliced waxy potatoes add a satisfying texture to the broth. A finishing touch of fresh dill and a squeeze of bright lemon juice lifts the dish, making it feel wonderfully leadened and fresh.

As a dairy-free alternative to traditional creamy chowders, this recipe uses just a small amount of crème fraîche to add a velvet-like richness without being heavy. It is an excellent choice for a healthy midweek supper or a relaxed weekend lunch. Serve this nutritious one-pot dish in warmed shallow bowls with plenty of crusty bread on the side to soak up every drop of the fragrant, herb-flecked sauce.
