Step by Step guide

Step 1

Chop the onion and carrot into thin strips and sauté them in butter (in a soup pot). Add the diced potatoes and cook the vegetables until they are partially tender. Pour water over the vegetables. Bring to a boil.

Step 2

Add the diced salmon fillet to the boiling vegetables.

Step 3

Peel the tomatoes, remove the seeds, and dice them before adding to the soup. Cook for 1 minute. Pour in the cream — this will give the dish an incredibly delicate, refined flavor and a creamy texture. Add spices and a bay leaf. Simmer on low heat until fully cooked.

Step 4

When serving, sprinkle the soup with chopped herbs and garnish the dish with a piece of rye bread spread with butter, which will perfectly complement the creamy flavor of the dish.
