| Fantastic Fish Pie |
6 large potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch squares
2 free-range eggs
2 large handfuls fresh spinach, trimmed and washed
1 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, halved and finely chopped
Some butter
1 cup heavy cream
2 good handfuls grated mature Cheddar or Parmesan
juice of 1 lemon
1 heaped teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 large handful flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 pound haddock or fresh cod fillet, skin removed, pin-boned and sliced into strips
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Nutmeg, optional
|
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Put the potatoes into salted boiling water and bring back to a boil for 2 minutes. Carefully add the eggs (in the shell) to the pan and cook for a further 8 minutes until hard boiled, by which time the potatoes should also be cooked. At the same time, steam the spinach in a colander above the pan. This will only take a minute. When the spinach is done, remove from the colander and gently squeeze any excess moisture away. Then drain the potatoes in the colander. Remove the eggs, cool under cold water, then peel and quarter them. Set aside.
In a separate pan slowly fry the onion and carrot in a little olive oil for about 5 minutes, then add the heavy cream, and bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the cheese, lemon juice, mustard, and parsley.
Put the spinach, fish and eggs into an appropriately sized earthenware dish and mix together, pouring over the creamy vegetable sauce. The cooked potatoes should be drained and mashed, add a bit of butter, salt, pepper, and a touch of nutmeg, if you like. Spread on top of the fish (spread it flat and simple or do it peaked and fancy - it's up to you). Bake it in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes until the potatoes are golden. Serve with some nice peas or greens (the English eat this with baked beans and tomato ketchup). |
| Kedgeree |
8 ounces (about 1-1/2 cups) long-grain rice, cleaned and rinsed
2 blades of mace (or pinch of nutmeg)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 ounce cooked haddock fillet
2 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped
¼ teaspoon turmeric
salt and pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose cream
a few slivers of green chile (you can get these canned)
sprig or two of fresh parsley, minced
one small onion, very thinly sliced and fried crisp |
| Cook the rice in your usual way with the two blades of mace and ¼ teaspoon turmeric (if using nutmeg, add this later, when the cream is stirred in). Cover the haddock with water and gently poach, turning once, until the fish begins to flake. Remove from the poaching liquid and break apart with a fork. Heat the butter in a large skillet and add the fish, stirring gently for a few minutes. Mix in the rice -- discarding the mace -- and, when the mixture is hot, add the hard-cooked eggs and green chiles. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and quickly stir in the cream, the minced parsley, and the rest of the butter. Turn into a heated serving dish and serve at once, sprinkled with crisp fried onions. |
