serves 6
Ingredients
3 leeks, white and light-green parts only
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 small fennel bulb, trimmed and cut into wedges, fronds reserved for garnish
2 celery stalks, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
4 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 14 1/2-ounce can fat-free vegetable stock
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 1-pound salmon fillet, skin removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 bunch (about 3 ounces) spinach, washed and cut into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips
Preparation
Step 1
Slice the leeks crosswise into 1/4-inch coins. Place in a bowl of cold water; move the leeks with your fingers so the sand falls to the bottom. Lift the leeks from the water with your fingers or a slotted spoon, and drain; set aside.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks, carrots, fennel, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley, thyme, stock, salt, pepper, and 5 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cook 30 minutes. Turn off heat; add the salmon and spinach. Poach until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Garnish with fennel fronds; serve.
