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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Serves 2⠀
⠀
INGREDIENTS ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2 Haddock Fillets
1 bunch Fresh Asparagus ⠀
2 eggs ⠀
Handful chopped dill (optional)⠀
⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀
125g butter⠀
2 egg yolks⠀
½ tsp Willy’s Apple cider vinegar⠀
pinch of salt ⠀
Squeeze of lemon juice⠀
splash of ice-cold water⠀
⠀
METHOD ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Melt the butter in a saucepan and skim any white solids from surface. Keep the butter warm. ⠀⠀
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.⠀⠀
⠀
Season the fish and roast in an oven at 210 degrees for 10 minutes.⠀
⠀
Steam or boil the Asparagus in salted water for 2 minutes. ⠀
⠀
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.⠀
⠀
Assemble the food as in the photo.⠀
