Method

  1. Put the haddock in a small pan, cover with water, bring to a bare simmer and poach for five minutes until it flakes. Lift out, drain on kitchen paper and break into large flakes.

  2. Heat the grill to high. Beat the eggs with pepper and the chives, melt the butter in a small ovenproof pan and pour the eggs in, stirring gently until half set.

  3. Scatter the haddock over the top, then the parmesan, and put the pan under the grill for one to two minutes until the top is golden and puffed. Serve straight from the pan.

Worth knowing

  • A stripped-down omelette Arnold Bennett with no cream sauce, which is where most of the calories in the hotel version live. The parmesan gives the same browned top.
  • Smoked haddock brings a lot of salt. Season the eggs with pepper only and taste before adding anything else.
