Have 2 huge haddock fillets in the frige for dinner. DH wants his fried (naturally)

Oh My Gosh! I just did a search and I posted almost the exact message in January!

I'll check out those replies! Sorry!

 
Cyn, the dish we do is usually with smoked haddock you dont say if yours is....this is a fav of ours

Kedgree...all the recipes are similar. I don't have the one we use with me but there are many to be found on the net, I am sure...rice, smoked haddock (when we cruised I smoked them myself on the stove top smoker...took it to the beach to do)and parsley...so yummy.

 
No, joanie, mine was fresh. I spritzed with olive oil and sprinkled with Penzey's Cajun- delicious!

Is your recipe posted? I want to try smoking some fish as soon as the weather gets better. (Prediction for tomorrow is 1-3 inches of snow- Blah)

 
Cyn, I am not sure how to go about the smoker recipe for this....

I really should try it now we are ashore and have a stove and gas BBQ etc. I used to do the smoking in a sand hollow on a small gas that could also be used as a light.
Anyway having smoked the fish I would then use recipes similar to the following I found...
These are supposedly English Breakfasts but we do them for lunch....with champers and OJ...just the best.
