Ingredients

500g pack shortcrust pastry
2 fillets smoked haddock with skin on (about 500g 1lb 2oz)
1 tbsp butter
2 bunches spring onions, finely sliced
3 eggs
300g crème fraîche (or a 300ml pot double cream)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
good pinch saffron
handful chives, finely chopped
85g mature cheddar or gruyère, grated

Cooking Instructions

  1. 01

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas

  2. 02

    Roll the pastry out on a floured surface to fit a 23cm fluted tart tin. Line the case with pastry, leaving plenty of overhang. Line the pastry with baking parchment, fill with baking beans and sit it on a baking sheet.

  3. 03

    Bake for 15 mins, until the pastry looks pale and feels a little sandy.

  4. 04

    Remove the paper and beans, then return to the oven for 10 mins more, until just golden.

  5. 05

    Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to a simmer. Drop in the haddock, skin-side down, and poach for 5 mins or until the flesh turns white.

  6. 06

    Drain, then cool a little. Peel away and discard the skin, then flake the flesh into the pastry case. Look out for any bones as you go.

  7. 07

    Melt the butter in a frying pan, then gently cook the spring onions for about 3 mins or until softened but still a vibrant green. Beat the eggs, crme frache or cream, mustard and saffron together in a jug, then add the chives and season with salt and pepper.

  8. 08

    Turn oven down to 160C/140C fan/gas

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
