Method

  1. Cover the potatoes in cold water, bring to the boil, then turn to a simmer. Cook for 10 mins until tender, adding peas for the final min of cooking. Drain and roughly crush together, adding plenty of seasoning and 1 tbsp oil. Keep warm.
  2. Meanwhile, for the dressing, mix 1 tbsp oil, the lemon juice and zest, capers and chives with some seasoning.
  3. Dust the fish in the flour, tapping off any excess and season. Heat remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan. Fry the fish for 2-3 mins on each side until cooked, then add the dressing and warm through. Serve with the crush and broccoli.

    Delicious weekday meal. I took the advice of others and made extra dressing - definitely worth it.

    This was tasty and very low in fat for a main meal. Plenty of seasoning needed to prevent it from being bland. I used less lemon than stated as it was a little overpowering.

    I can only add another 5* rating...this recipe is so easy and absolutely delicious. My children aged 5 & 7 loved it. They call capers 'taste explosions'!

    I didn't double the dressing as there was only two of us but if i was feeding more i would. This is so quick and easy to do. I did minted potatoes, peas, and veg instead of crushed potatoes. It's lovely and light. With the weather like it is 9very hat and sunny) it's perfect for tea time. Love it

    A really lovely, fresh dish. As other people have mentioned, the sauce did need to be doubled (we had the amount for two people, rather than the recommended four). Also was a little confused about what "warmed through" meant so we spread the dressing on the fish while it was cooking and it turned out really nice! Will definitely make again.

    I served it with crushed potatoes and caramelised onions and rocket. The comments about sauce can't be right... increasing the quantities would overpower the fish.. This recipe was 100% perfect and so good that I actually bothered to register to be able to leave this comment. I am very lucky that a guy in a van parks at the bottom of Victoria Road in Cambridge every Wednesday and supplies superb smoked haddock. Actually, everything his sells is superb and he should be knighted. Again this recipe was superb and was the best haddock recipe I ever tasted!

    Quick and easy to cook and was enjoyed by family. Doubled the sauce and think potato/pea crush would benefit from adding mint. Would be interested to try salmon as mentioned by another comment but would use less oil.

    I made this for my 5 and 4 year olds and they LOVED it (and the 5 year old generally groans when I say I'm making fish). Really tasty. Really fast & easy!

    I loved this. Very good diet dish. I replaced the chives with some finely chopped shallot (which I let soften in the vinegarette for a few minutes to soften). I've always struggled to like haddock, generally eating it because it's low fat, but this was yummer-roo!

    Lemon was overpowering, so would use less next time. Apart from that, was lovely, will cook again

    Loved this! I was making it for two but, having read all the comments above, made sauce for four... and still we could have done with more! I'm not overly keen on capers so mixed a good teaspoon of caper paste with the lemon juice and olive oil. I also used spring onions in preference to chives. Very simple. Very tasty. Clean plates. A winner!
