Cullen skink recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion
  • 400g medium potatoes (about 2), peeled and cut into 1cm cubes
  • 250g smoked haddock
  • 250ml whole milk
  • ½ small bunch of parsley or chives, finely chopped

Method

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat, then add the onion and fry for 5-8 mins until translucent but not browned. Add the potatoes and 300ml water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat slightly and simmer for 10-15 mins.

  • Meanwhile, put the haddock in another pan and cover with the the milk. Cook gently for 5 mins, or until just tender. Remove the haddock from the milk with a slotted spoon (reserving the milk), transfer to a plate and leave to cool slightly. When cool enough to touch, flake into large pieces, removing any bones.

  • Put the reserved milk and flaked haddock in the pan with the potato mixture and cook for another 5 mins. Season and sprinkle over the parsley to serve.
