Smoked Haddock with White Sauce (Finnan Haddie with White Sauce - Scotland)
This is a Scottish tradition which is often served for breakfast. Add potatoes, and it becomes a main meal. The name comes from Findon, a village renowned for the industry of curing fish. "Haddie" is a slang term for haddock.
1 pound smoked haddock or smoked cod fillets
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup milk

Stir milk gradually into cornstarch in 1-quart saucepan; heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Pour over fish. Simmer uncovered until fish flakes easily with fork, 3 to 5 minutes.
Serve with boiled or baked potatoes if desired.
Yields 4 servings.
