\n5 large potatoes
\n2 large free-range eggs
\n2 large handfuls of baby spinach
\n1 onion
\n1 carrot
\nolive oil
\n250 ml double cream
\nmature Cheddar or Parmesan cheese
\n1 lemon
\n1 heaped teaspoon English mustard
\n1 large handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley
\n450 g haddock, or cod fillet, skin off, pin-boned, from sustainable sources
\n1 whole nutmeg, for grating (optional)<\/p>\n
\nPreheat the oven to 230\u00b0C\/450\u00b0F\/gas 8.
\nPeel and dice the potatoes into 2.5cm chunks, then put into boiling salted water and bring back to the boil for 2 minutes.
\nCarefully add the eggs to the pan and cook for a further 8 minutes, or until hard-boiled, by which time the potatoes should also be cooked.
\nAt the same time, steam the spinach in a colander above the pan. This will only take a minute. When the spinach is done, remove it from the colander and gently squeeze out any excess moisture.
\nDrain the potatoes in the colander. Remove the eggs, cool under cold water, then peel and quarter them. Place to one side.
\nPeel and finely chop the onion, then peel, halve and finely chop the carrot.
\nIn a separate pan, slowly fry the onion and carrot in a little oil for about 5 minutes, then add the double cream and bring just to the boil.
\nRemove from the heat and finely grate in 2 good handfuls of cheese, then squeeze in the lemon juice and stir through the mustard.
\nPick and finely chop the parsley and stir into the cream mixture.
\nSlice the fish into strips then place in an earthenware dish with the spinach and eggs and mix together, pouring over the creamy vegetable sauce.
\nThe cooked potatoes should be drained and mashed \u2013 add a bit of oil, sea salt, black pepper and a touch of nutmeg (if using). Spread on top of the fish. Don\u2019t bother piping it to make it look pretty \u2013 it\u2019s a homely hearty thing.
\nPlace in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden.
\nServe with some nice peas or greens, not forgetting your baked beans and tomato ketchup. Tacky but tasty, and that\u2019s what I like.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
