Breakfast for her has to include a piece of haddock. I was surprised when last in the English countryside, the haddock I ordered looked nothing like the haddock we get here. It had a delicate, smoked colour and a lingering smoked-fish flavour. But back to South Africa and to working with what we have... prepared the night before and popped into the oven when everyone is ready to eat is simply ideal; so the individual ramekins filled with creamy, flaked haddock, mushrooms, free-range egg and caviar, commemorates a special occasion and starts the day with a celebratory tone.
