Haddock, Cauliflower and Potato Purée

Ingredients

  • 1 medium baking potato
  • 1 small piece haddock fillet (or cod or pollack), about 150g
  • 1/2 small cauliflower cut into florets
  • a splash of milk or knob of butter

Method

  1. Set your oven to 200C/ fan 180C/ gas 6. Enclose the potato in foil, place it on a baking tray and roast for 1 hour 15 mins. Wrap the fish fillet in another piece of foil, add it to the tray and cook for a further 10 mins or until it is opaque and fully cooked.
  2. While that cooks, boil water in a saucepan. Set a steamer over the pan and steam the cauliflower florets for about 8 mins or until they become tender.
  3. After cooking, cut the potato in half and remove the soft interior. Break the cooked fish into flakes, ensuring all skin and bones are discarded.
  4. Purée the steamed cauliflower, potato flesh and flaked haddock together. You can add a splash of milk or a knob of butter at this stage to achieve your desired consistency.
