Ingredients

  • 300ml milk 

  • 2 portions of smoked haddock filet, weighing about 225g in total, skinned 

  • 50g butter 

  • 200g potatoes, peeled and boiled until tender 

  • 10 curry leaves - if you can get them; leave them out if you can’t 

  • 1 tablespoon mild curry powder 

  • 2 tablespoons peas - thawed frozen are fine 

  • 3 spring onions, chopped 

  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives 

  • 2 eggs, poached or fried  

Method

  1. Put the milk into a saucepan and bring to a simmer, then add the smoked haddock. Simmer for 7 minutes. Put the lid on the pan and remove from the heat. When the fish has cooled, drain it and discard the milk.  
  2. Melt the butter in a frying pan. When bubbling crush the potatoes in your hand, or using a fork, and fry them gently in the butter, with the curry leaves if using, until they are starting to crisp. Add the curry powder.  
  3. Flake the fish into the potatoes. Add the peas and then the spring onions and chives, and cook for a few more minutes. Divide between 2 plates and serve with a runny poached egg or a perfectly fried egg on top.
