1 Tablespoon or so of vegetable or if you like olive oil(to cook vegetables)
1/2-2/3 cup chopped onion
2 celery stalks, diced
2 cloves garlic minced
4 cups milk
1 cup potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups butternut squash, peeled and diced
1 bay leaf
1 - 1-1/4 lbs fish fillet cut in 3/4 inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
salt and ground white pepper to taste

I take half the potatoes and squash and boil them untill soft then mash them and set aside

I cook the onion, celery and garlic with the oil just untill it's translucent stirring often not to burn cause it will change the flavor. then i add the 3 cups of milk 1/2 the potatoes and 1/2 the squash along with the bay leaf.. simmer for about 8 minutes then add the mashed potatoes and squash.. cook for the rest of the 7 minutes or so.

then add the fish, thyme, marjoram, salt and pepper. when the fish is just about cooked thru i shut the heat off and let it sit for a bit (like 5-10 minutes) check the fish.. you don't want rubber..

I don't add all the pepper right away.. my cousin adds paprika at the end.. i don't like the taste.. i add a little more pepper to my bowl...

just becareful as so you don't make it too thick.. if you want it thicker i just add a little instant potato.. i don't like to use flour.. as it clumps...
