Serves:

Ingredients

  • 300g smoked haddock fillets
  • 1 leek, sliced
  • 1 cup pearl barley
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and sauté the onions and garlic until softened.

  2. Add the sliced leeks and cook until they start to wilt.

  3. Add the pearl barley and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

  4. Add the white wine and cook until it is absorbed by the barley.

  5. Gradually add the vegetable broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.

  6. After about 20 minutes, the barley should be cooked al dente. At this point, add the smoked haddock fillets to the skillet and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, breaking up the haddock into smaller pieces as it cooks.

  7. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper.

  8. Serve the smoked haddock, leek, and barley ‘risotto’ hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
