What do I need?
- 4 potatoes, peeled and cut into 2 ½ centimetre cubes
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tsp thyme

How do I make it?
- Cook potatoes in a pot of boiling salted water for about 10 minutes or until they are slightly undercooked. Drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat add olive oil and butter. When butter has melted add onions and celery and cook until the onions are transparent.
- Add garlic, bay leaf and thyme, stir and then reduce heat to medium-low and add wine and stock. Add salmon and potatoes and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and fold in yoghurt.
- Return to a very low heat and heat through slowly to avoid curdling yoghurt.
- To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with prawns.
