I don’t know about you, but the combination of fish, asparagus and a poached egg, is one I can’t resist. In my opinion the best eggs are from @clarencecourt Their eggs are delicious and the yolks are vibrant and orange 😍

Haddock is packed full of essential vitamins mainly those in the B vitamin family including B-6, thiamin, riboflavin, folate and pantothenic acid.

Roasted Haddock, Asparagus and Poached Egg, with a Hollandaise sauce.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Melt the butter in a saucepan and skim any white solids from surface. Keep the butter warm.

  2. Put the egg yolks, cider vinegar, a pinch of salt and a splash of ice-cold water in a metal or glass bowl that will fit over a small pan. Whisk for a few minutes then put the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and whisk continuously until pale and thick, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the melted butter, bit by bit until it’s all incorporated and you have a creamy hollandaise. (If it gets too thick, add a splash of water.) Season with a squeeze of lemon juice and a little pepper. Keep warm until needed.

  3. Season the fish and roast in an oven at 210 degrees for 10 minutes.

  4. Steam or boil the Asparagus in salted water for 2 minutes.

  5. Bring a medium pan of water to the slow simmer. Crack an egg into a small cup then into the simmering water with a quick movement. Leave for 3 minutes, then carefully remove using a slotted spoon. Drain on kitchen towel.

  6. Assemble the food as in the photo.
