Method
Method
- Heat the oven to 200C, or 180C fan.
- Heat a frying pan that can be covered and be put in the oven, add some olive oil and gently fry the fennel until starting to turn golden.
- Add the pernod, boil for minute, then add the wine, onion and garlic, allow the alcohol to boil off for a minute then cover and turn to a simmer, keep cooking until the fennel is tender, add a little water if you need to help it along.
- When the fennel is soft and giving, place the fish on top and add the olives, cover and place in a pre heated oven. Cook for 6-8 minutes until the haddock is just cooked. Using a fish slice lift the fish out with the fennel underneath and plate up.
- Using a spoon gently peel off the skin of the haddock. Place the pan back on the stove top and add the butter, bring to a boil until the sauce is buttery and thickened then add the dill and lemon juice and spoon over the fish.
