4/5

I have cooked this recipe a couple of times and love the results. All the flavours and textures work so well together. This is ironic as I grew up not liking fish, particularly smoked haddock! The only downside I have discovered is that the egg doesn’t freeze well. If you intend freezing this dish, I’d recommend that you chop the two eggs that get mixed in fairly small and omit the two half eggs that sit on top.

Add the eggs after defrosting. Genius! I wish I'd thought of that!

5/5
