  1. Boil a kettle. Dissolve the stock cube in a jug with 800ml boiling water. Dice the potato into 2cm cubes. Slice the spring onions into 3cm lengths. Roughly dice the celery. Remove the thyme leaves from their stalks and finely chop.
  2. Heat a frying pan with 2 tbsp oil on a medium-high heat. Fry the potato, spring onion and celery with the thyme for 3-4 mins, until the onion and celery begin to soften. Add the stock and a quarter of the paprika, then boil for 10-12 mins, until the potatoes are soft.
  3. Roughly chop the parsley. Dice the hake. Once the potatoes are soft, add the cream, spinach and fish. Zest the lemon and halve. Simmer for another 5 mins, then add the juice from half the lemon, half the zest and half the parsley.
  4. Cut the remaining half lemon into quarters. Serve the chowder garnished with the coconut bacon, remaining parsley, remaining zest and lemon quarters. Sprinkle with the remaining paprika.
