Smoked Haddock & Bacon Gratin

Smoked Haddock & Bacon Gratin

Smoked Haddock & Bacon Gratin is a rich, savoury seafood bake that combines flaky smoked haddock with crisp bacon, sweetcorn and tender vegetables in a creamy white wine and cheese sauce. The smoky fish and salty bacon bring bold flavour, while the sauce keeps the dish smooth and comforting.

A golden potato topping adds texture and helps soak up the creamy filling underneath, creating a balanced bake that feels both hearty and refined. It is a brilliant cold-weather supper and equally good for a relaxed weekend lunch when you want something satisfying but easy to serve.

Bring it to the table straight from the oven with peas or buttery greens, and allow a few minutes to rest before serving so the sauce settles. It is classic comfort food with a little extra depth and character.
