Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs haddock fillets
• 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1 cup milk
• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large saucepan, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
3. Drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan. Add the milk and butter, then mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. In a separate skillet, sauté the onion and garlic until they are soft and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
5. Add the haddock fillets to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and gently separate the fish into chunks.
6. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cooked haddock, peas, grated cheddar cheese, and dried thyme. Mix gently until well combined.
7. Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.
9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
