Ingredients

  • 2 smoked haddock fillets, preferably undyed about 140g/5oz each
  • good splash milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 450g pack ready-made colcannon or other flavoured ready-made mashed potato
  • handful chives, snipped

Method

  • STEP 1

    Lay the haddock fillets in a shallow microwaveable dish and pour the milk over to half cover. Cover with cling film and microwave on High for 4-5 mins until the haddock flesh flakes easily. Meanwhile, get a pan of water on for the eggs.

  • STEP 2

    Crack the eggs into the simmering water and poach for around 1-2 mins until the white is set, but the yolks are still soft. Remove the fish. Heat colcannon in the microwave according to pack instructions.

  • STEP 3

    Mix half the chives into the colcannon, then spoon it between two plates. Top with the haddock and eggs and scatter with the remaining chives.
