How Difficult Easy

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion
  • 400 g medium potatoes about 2, peeled and cut into 1cm cubes
  • 250 g smoked haddock
  • 250 ml whole milk
  • ½ small bunch of parsley or chives finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat, then add the onion and fry for 5-8 mins until translucent but not browned. Add the potatoes and 300ml water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat slightly and simmer for 10-15 mins.
  • Meanwhile, put the haddock in another pan and cover with the the milk. Cook gently for 5 mins, or until just tender. Remove the haddock from the milk with a slotted spoon (reserving the milk), transfer to a plate and leave to cool slightly. When cool enough to touch, flake into large pieces, removing any bones.
  • Put the reserved milk and flaked haddock in the pan with the potato mixture and cook for another 5 mins. Season and sprinkle over the parsley to serve.
