Best Smoked Haddock With Potato And Parsnip Rösti Recipes

PARSNIP LATKES WITH SMOKED HADDOCK & POACHED EGG

Steps:

• Grate the parsnips into a bowl and add the flour and dill. Beat 2 of the eggs and add them to the bowl. Season and set aside.
• Heat oven to its lowest setting. Pour the milk into a saucepan and add the haddock, skin-side up. Cover, bring slowly to the boil, then turn off the heat and poach for 5 mins. Discard the milk and haddock skin. Put the fish in a bowl and mix in the horseradish and lemon zest - as you stir, the fish will flake. Put the spinach in a casserole dish, then push to one side, pour over 3 tbsp boiling water and season. Put the haddock in the other side, cover with foil and put in the oven to keep warm.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add three large mounds of the parsnip mixture, flatten with the back of a fish slice and fry for 3-4 mins on each side until golden. Transfer to a baking tray lined with kitchen paper and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
• Bring a large pan of water to a simmer, crack in the eggs and poach for 2-3 mins, then drain on kitchen paper. Divide the latkes between plates, spoon over the fish and spinach and top with an egg. Season and serve with dill fronds and lemon wedges.

SMOKED HADDOCK WITH POTATO AND PARSNIP RöSTI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220 C/425°F.
• Peel the potatoes and parsnips, and grate them into a large bowl. Chop the spring onions and chervil and add them, season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly, adding 50 ml olive oil.
• Cook rösti in two batches. Heat large frying pan with 25 ml of the oil. Press half of the rösti mixture into the hot pan in a flat layer.
• Cook on moderately high until the bottom crisps up, then turn it over on to the hot baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
• Oil the haddock fillets and put them on to another baking sheet.
• Put both sheets into the oven for 10 minutes (rösti on the top where it's hotter - check it after 5 minutes).
• Meantime, crush the garlic and cook it in 10 ml of the olive oil until it begins to soften. Add spinach, stir until it has wilted completely. Press out the liquid that has formed while cooking, season and keep warm.
• Poach the eggs in water and vinegar - aim for a runny yolk.
• To serve, cut a wedge of the rösti, crown it with the spinach, haddock and on the top the poached egg.

SMOKED HADDOCK DAUPHINOISE

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pan of cold, salted water and bring to the boil, then turn off the heat. Drain well. Tip the potatoes back into the pan and pour over the cream, then add the thyme, two-thirds of the parmesan and the haddock. Season and gently mix everything together.
• Butter a medium-sized gratin dish, then tip in the potato mixture. Scatter with the remaining parmesan. Will keep covered and chilled for a day or frozen for three months. Defrost fully before cooking.
• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Bake for 30-35 mins until golden and bubbling around the edges. Leave to cool for at least 5 mins, then serve straight from the dish with a dressed watercress salad on the side, if you like. Scatter with some extra thyme and grind over some black pepper to serve.
