Prep: 10 mins - Cooking: 25 mins

Serves: 2

Smoked haddock tastes great teamed with green beans and dill. This is a recipe by @greekygirleats Joanna 2022 Masterchef contestant in and this is how to make it.

Ingredients

1. 1 fillet of Alfred Enderby Smoked Haddock
2. 25g butter
3. 20g flour
4. 250ml milk
5. 1 lemon
6. green beans
7. bunch of dill

To cook:

1. Season the fish with salt, pepper, a squeeze of lemon and olive oil.
2. Pre-heat your grill to 220 fan and cook skin side up for 10 minute.
3. Then flip and cook for a further 15 minutes.
4. Carefully take out of the oven and pop onto your preferred plate.

Joanna paired this with a parsley sauce, steamed green beans and creamed spinach (recipe in this post!) - garnish with dill for extra fragrance and flavour.

For the sauce

1. Melt 25g butter in a pan over a med-low heat, then stir in 20g plain flour. Cook, stirring, for 1-2 mins until a paste forms.
2. Gradually pour in the 250ml milk, stirring continuously until all the milk has been incorporated and the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
3. Bring to a simmer and bubble for a minute or so...
4. Remove from the heat and stir through the parsley. Add the juice of 1/2-1 lemon and 1tsp of preferred mustard to taste (optional).
5. Season well with salt and pepper. Once cool, it will keep chilled for up to three days or frozen for a month.
