Seeing [[Celebrity Chefs on Desert Island Discs#Delia Smith - broadcast 5th June 1982|Delia Smith]] talk about her first ever television recipe gave me the idea to try this version. Nothing very elaborate, just made from the [[Fish|fish]] what was knocking around at the time

====Best recipe review====

''Not bad for haddock.''

4/5 

Not keen on haddock, bu the addition of salmon saves this recipe.

{{RecipeIngredients
| 2 very large [[Baking|baking]] [[Potatoes|potatoes]] (Cara, Estima, King Edwards, Marfona, Maris Piper, Vivaldi)
| [[Olive oil]]
| [[Table salt]]
| 1 small [[Haddock|haddock]] fillet
| 1 small [[Salmon|salmon]] fillet
| 1 cup of [[Milk|milk]]
| 1 tablespoon [[Butter|butter]]
| 1 teaspoon [[Fennel seeds|fennel seeds]], [[Ground|ground]]
| 1 tablespoon [[Capers|capers]], chopped
| 4 tablespoons [[Grated|grated]] [[Cheddar cheese]]
| [[Salt]] and [[Freshly ground black pepper|freshly ground black pepper]] to taste

}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Prick the [[Potatoes|potatoes]] all over with a fork to make 100's of pin-holes to allow the [[Potato|potato]] to lose water from the surface and crisp when [[Baking|baking]].
* Using your hands, rub a teaspoon of [[Olive oil|olive oil]] all over the [[Potatoes|potatoes]]
* Rub a few tablespoons of [[Table salt|table salt]] over the [[Potatoes|potatoes]] so the [[Salt|salt]] sticks to the surface. Don't worry, it will all be removed before cooking.
* Leave in a [[Sieve|sieve]] for 3 or 4 hours if you can. You can omit this if you don't have the time, it just makes for the best [[Baked potatoes|baked potatoes]]!
* Preheat the [[Oven|oven]] to 220° C (425° F - gas 7)

===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Quickly wash the [[Salt|salt]] off the [[Potatoes|potatoes]] and pat them dry.
| [[Bake]] for about an hour in the [[Oven|oven]].
| When cool enough to handle, halve and scoop out the flesh and place in a bowl with the [[Butter|butter]], [[Ground|ground]] [[Fennel seeds|fennel seeds]], chopped [[Capers|capers]] and then [[Mash|mash]] to your desired consistency.
| Meanwhile place the [[Fish|fish]], skin on, in a [[Frying pan|frying pan]] add a cup of [[Milk|milk]] top up with a little water if needed to just cover the fish.
| [[Poach]] for about 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the [[Salmon|salmon]]. The salmon should only just be cooked at the thickest point. By this time the [[Haddock|haddock]] will be cooked.
| Allow to cool and then remove the skin and any pin-[[bones]]. Discard the poaching liquid.
| [[Flake]] the [[Fish|fish]] into the [[Mash|mash]] and gently fold in, keeping some chunks.
| Season to taste, for an extra fishy flavour, add a splash of [[Nam-pla|nam-pla]].
| Spoon the mixture back into the cooked [[Potato|potato]] skins and sprinkle with [[Grated|grated]] [[Cheese|cheese]].
| If the [[Mash|mash]] mixture is still warm then finish off under a slow [[Grill|grill]], or if the mixture has cooled, [[Bake|bake]] for 25 minutes at 160° C (325° F - gas 3) and then finish the [[Cheese|cheese]] with a short grill.
}}
===Variations===
Chopped [[Chives|chives]] and [[Parsley|parsley]] would be good in season, as would a little [[Soured cream|soured cream]], although it's quite rich already.
