Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Fill large pot with water and add coarse sea salt. Add potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes, then carefully add eggs. Boil for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender.
  3. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon and set aside to cool. Drain potatoes using colander and shake out excess moisture.
  4. Return potatoes to pot and mash coarsely using fork or potato masher. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and taste for seasoning (add salt if needed). If potatoes seem dry and crumbly, add a bit of stock. Set aside.
  5. Remove shell of cooled boiled eggs and cut into quarters.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a large (12 to 15 inch) oven-safe skillet or casserole dish.
  7. Sauté the chopped/diced onions, celery and carrots until soft, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Stir in coconut cream and bring to a simmer.
  8. Turn off heat and whisk in lemon juice, Dijon mustard and ½ teaspoon fine sea salt. Add in spinach and let it wilt. Add peas, fish, eggs and 1 tablespoon of parsley. Mix well.
  9. Transfer fish mixture in oven-safe dish. Spread well and smooth out the top. Fully cover the top with mashed potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil. If dish is very full, place it on a baking sheet.
  10. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, or until potatoes start browning and sides are bubbling. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  11. Garnish with the remaining parsley and dill. Serve warm.

TIPS & VARIATIONS

Low FODMAP variation: omit onion, garlic, celery and peas.

Substitution: Swap the haddock with other low-mercury fish such as cod, salmon or hake.

Substitution: Swap the frozen peas with frozen cauliflower for an extra dose of sulforaphane, a powerful DNA methylation modulator with anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties.
