Cornish haddock with sea beet soup and olive oil
Item 1 of 1
Dark green and glossy, sea beet is like spinach and can be found wild along the British coastline. Watercress makes a good substitution if you can't get a hold of sea beet for this seafood soup. This is a spectacular haddock recipe from Nathan Outlaw that can easily make a main meal for two.
