Method

  • step 1

    Put the potatoes in a microwaveable bowl with a splash of water, cover, then cook on high for 5 mins until tender (or steam or simmer them).

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, add the leeks with a pinch of salt and cook for 10 mins, stirring so they don’t stick, until softened. Tip in the potatoes, turn up the heat and fry for a couple of mins to crisp them up a bit. Flake through the mackerel.

  • step 3

    Make four indents in the leek mixture in the pan, crack an egg into each, season, then cover the pan and cook for 6-8 mins until the whites have set and the yolks are runny. Serve the horseradish on the side, with the pan in the middle of the table.

This was actually delicious. I fried the potatoes in a wok to make them really crispy while I was cooking the leeks. The eggs only took 4 mins in the wok with the lid on and came out perfect and runny.

I used horseradish in the cooking and more on the side it was epic.

I followed other’s advice and cooked eggs separately. I added horseradish to hash and served extra on side. Really tasty!

Very simple delicious meal. The flavour of all the ingredients compliment each other perfectly.

I crushed the potatoes and leeks as well as adding chopped samphire when serving

question

Could the mackerel be swapped for smoked haddock?

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes you can use smoked haddock but you'll need to cook it first (you can poach it or microwave it in a little water for a few minutes until opaque and cooked through). We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
