Smoked Haddock and Cheddar Jackets

Ingredients – Serves 4
300g smoked haddock
4 large baking potatoes
4 tbsp crème fraîche
6 spring onions, chopped, including green bits
100g cheddar, grated
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
Method
Step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Prick the potatoes all over with a fork then bake for 50 minutes-1 hour or until tender.
Step 2
Meanwhile, put the haddock in a dish and cover with boiling water. Cover and leave for 10 minutes, then flake, discarding any skin and bone.
Step 3
Halve the potatoes and scoop out the middles into a bowl, leaving a 1cm-thick shell. Add the crème fraîche, spring onions (keep a small handful to finish), half the cheese and the mustard, season well and mash.
Step 4
Gently stir in the haddock then pile the mixture back into the shells. Rough up the surfaces, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Step 5
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until piping hot, then scatter with the rest of the spring onion to serve.
