Prawn & Smoked Haddock Pancakes
Pancake Day is fast approaching – whether you’re a year-round pancake-maker or just prefer to stick to Shrove Tuesday, there’s something special about mixing up your own batter and having a go at the real thing. If you don’t have a sweet tooth, you can use your pancakes to make some delicious savoury dishes; the Pancakes with a Creamy Prawn and Smoked Haddock Filling recipe is easy to make, and looks impressive too.
Ingredients
6 pancakes, made using the basic pancake recipe (keep them warm if possible)
25g butter, plus a little extra
30g plain flour
200ml milk
Double cream
300g smoked haddock fillet
200g cooked peeled prawns
Lemon juice
Dijon mustard
Small bunch of fresh parsley, chopped
Method
Melt 25g of the butter in a pan, then stir in the plain flour and cook for about 2 minutes. Pour in the milk a little at a time, stirring to mix well each time before adding more. When you have made a thick sauce, add salt and pepper to taste, splash in a little double cream and set aside.
Place the extra butter in a shallow pan and melt over a gentle heat. Increase the heat to medium, and place the haddock fillets in the pan (skin-side down). Cook for 3 minutes, then turn the fillets and cook for a further minute. Remove the fish from the pan and discard the skin, then use a fork to break the flesh into flakes. Gently fold the flaked fish into the white sauce, then add the prawns, together with a squeeze of lemon juice, a teaspoon of Dijon mustard and the chopped parsley. Carefully spoon the mixture into your pre-made pancakes, then roll them up and serve with a crisp salad.
