How to Make Smoked Haddock Risotto

Tap a step to highlight it, or turn on Cook Mode for large type and step-by-step focus.

  1. Heat the milk and stock in a wide pan, add the haddock and poach for 6 minutes. Lift out, flake the fish and discard the skin and bones. Keep the liquid hot.

  2. Soften the onion in the butter in a separate pan for 6 minutes. Stir in the rice for 2 minutes.

  3. Add the hot liquid a ladle at a time, stirring, for about 20 minutes until the rice is tender with a slight bite.

  4. Stir in the peas for the last 3 minutes.

  5. Fold in the fish, parmesan, parsley and pepper and rest for 2 minutes.

Small Things That Help

  • Poach the fish in the milk.
