1. Firstly assemble the dish. Scatter the haddock, leek and parsley over the bottom of a shallow microwavable dish and mix together with your fingers or a spoon. Drizzle over half the cream and 5 tablespoons of water. Lay the potato slices over the fish and leeks and drizzle over the remaining cream. Season the potatoes with a little salt and plenty of black pepper.
2. Put the grill on high. Cover the dish with cling film and pierce it a few times. Microwave the pie on the highest setting for 8-10 minutes until everything's bubbling away and the potatoes are tender when poked with a knife. Whip off the cling film and put the dish under the grill until the potatoes are golden. Leave to rest for a minute, then serve straight from the dish.

'Quick, simple and only needed minimum preparation. I'd make this one again, but I'd bake it in the oven and add a cheese topping.'

  Haddock tasted lovely with the potatoes but was too runny for my liking with all that cream.

  I varied it slightly by starting it in the microwave and finished it in the oven. Also sprinkled some grated cheddar on the top. I agreed with Topchef about it being too runny so covered the top with some greaseproof paper allowing the cream to reduce. Delicious and really easy.

  Very tasty and very easy. I grated some cheddar on the top and baked it in my fan oven at 170 degrees for about half an hour instead of doing it in the microwave. I will definitely be making this again.

  So easy and yummy, a firm favourite in our household!! Haven't had any problems with the potatoes being runny only thing is I always forget is the recipe is only for 2!!!! I also add cheese (and sometimes breadcrumbs) and grill at the end.

  This came out really well - i was quite surprised that the microwave worked so well, and the grill just finished it off perfectly. I used a mix of smoked and plain haddock so the taste wasn't too strong and all liked it

  AMAZING - cooked for housemates who were unconvinced by microwaving and they LOVED it....I also added cheese during grilling and I will be cooking this again

  Slaved for well over the alotted 10 mins to make sure the potatoes were thin enough but they were still completely raw after 15 mins in the microwave and 10 mins under the grill! Disaster...... I think the moral of the story is 'don't try and use a low fat alternative to cream!'
