Method

  1. 1

    Boil the potatoes for 15-18 minutes until tender, then drain and mash with 30g of the butter and 150ml of the milk, stirring in the spring onions.

  2. 2

    Melt the remaining butter in a small pan, whisk in a splash of flour if you like it thicker, then whisk in the remaining milk and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley.

  3. 3

    Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and cook the hake, skin-side down, for 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for a further 2-3 minutes until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve the hake with the parsley sauce and champ.
