Black Pudding Hash topped with a Poached Egg served with a Creamy English Mustard Sauce

Black Pudding HashIngredients

For the Hash

  • Baking Potatoes (1 per person)
  • Diced Bury Black Pudding (75 grams per person)
  • Chopped flat leaf parsley (to taste)
  • Salt and Black Pepper
  • Egg for poaching (1 per person)

For the Sauce (per person)

  • 1 tablespoon of English Mustard
  • ½ tablespoon of Honey
  • 2 tablespoons of Double Cream

Combine the above ingredients to make the sauce. If this is too fiery add more honey or cream to your taste.

Method

Bake the potatoes, allow them to cool, then grate coarsely In a large mixing bowl combine the diced black pudding, chopped herbs, potato and seasoning, make sure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed, then form by hand into individual potato cakes (roughly 1 ½ inches high by 3 inches wide). These can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.

Pan fry for 2 - 3 minutes on both sides until golden brown, then pop in a moderate oven for about 10 minutes or until cooked through.

When your hash is almost cooked put a splash of vinegar into a pan of boiling water, when your pan has reached a rolling boil, crack your egg into the roll, this will help the white to surround the yolk and start to set, cook for 2-3 minutes for a runny yolk, for a harder yolk just cook a bit longer.

When cooked, remove eggs from the pan and drain to remove all excess water.

Remove the black pudding hash from the oven and place the freshly poached egg on top. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on top of the egg to bring out the flavour, then drizzle your dressing round and over your hash and serve.

We also like to serve this dish with a couple of rashers of crispy smoked bacon.
