1888. SMOKED HADDOCK with BLACK PUDDING and BACON

2 undyed smoked haddock fillets (175-200 g/6-7 oz each), skinned
2 thin slices of black pudding, skinned (cut very cold or it might crumble)
4 rashers traditionally cured unsmoked back bacon
extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C/450 degrees F/Gas 8. Roll the fish so that the thin ends are tucked underneath; you want a neat little parcel. Top with the black pudding then wrap in the bacon. Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet and drizzle with oil. (I don’t season, as cured fish is already salted). Place the baking sheet near the top of the oven for 15 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked. Serve hot with the pan juices poured over.
